Guest guest Posted April 11, 2000 Report Share Posted April 11, 2000 Welcome to Jill, Marco and Zaman. I am Barbara and I live in Bethesda, land, which is a suburb of Washington, DC. I do not have CMT, but my 8y/o daughter does. My husband and I adopted her when she was 1 y/o from an orphanage in India, Maharastra province. She is a stunning beauty with absolutely captivating eyes. She is also a very funny kid. Our daughter was diagnosed with CMT type 2 a year ago. Recently, another doctor suggested that she may have Spinal Muscular Atrophy. She walks with a pronounced waddle, scares the dickens out of me when she descends a flight of stairs without her leg braces, walks on the outside edges of her feet where she has developed enormous callouses, and has the high arches and pronated stance that is typical of CMT. She reads Drew and listens to opera before falling off to sleep at night. I worry and fret while she is in her bedroom singing arias. By the way, Marco, your English is fine. I have no problem understanding you. As for you, Zaman, we have very similar posting practices -- the all or nothing approach. But I am always reading.
