New Member is Neuropathy Activist


by: Lisa on Wed, Sep 05 2007

Call me a dedicated daughter and niece because I lost my mom 20 mos. ago, when she became bedridden from complications from PN [peripheral neuropathy] and CMT [Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease].

Immediately after, her brother’s own PN and CMT got worse, and he’s battling these crippling and debilitating nerve diseases and disorders.

I’ve started a website to raise awareness for PN and CMT

No child should witness a parent in extreme pain - and feel totally helpless.

Thanks for your time, cooperation, and understanding.

Sincerely,
NervyLisa
GET NERVY!
Thank you.
