Mine was not as severe as yours, it only affected my legs and gave me a good case of scoliosis. I am able to function pretty well with leg braces and crutches although in the last couple of years I started using a wheelchair around home. Welcome to the echo, and I hope to hear a lot more from you! Warren King 'HandiNet BBS' -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!275!429!Warren.King Internet: Warren.King@f429.n275.z1.fidonet.org
