I have Charcot's. So far we've managed to keep my legs attached but they're in rough shape.

I know it can be scary but sometimes you just have to take the leap. Years ago I moved across the country with just what I could fit in my car and it ended up being the best decision of my life. It could go wrong or it could be the smartest thing you've ever done. You won't know unless you try.

Man that's rough.. It's really hard to appreciate things we take for granted untill it's taken away. I really feel for the blind and people unable to walk. I couldn't imagine having to go thru that myself. It really is things that just happens to other people and not me untill it does. I hope future medicine and science has an ace up in its sleeve to help people like you.
