You know, it's funny (odd), but Dave and I were separated at the time I
got hit with TM. I was openly dating and in fact, was visiting a friend in
Ohio when it happened.
I lived in Ohio for a year before I couldn't stand it any more and begged
Dave to let me come home. He finally

For me the only issues I have with winter is an increase in pain, the heat
makes my spasms much worse than cold. I have never lived any where other than
snowy Michigan so I think coping with the ice and snow have just become
normal. I just wear rubber soled tennis shoes and keep going. As

I also believe in Karma and also tried to live my life according to the
golden rule. Which makes me wonder, if I did something so bad to someone,
that I would end up in this situation. If I made any mistakes that warrant
this, I would remember. It's hard to say that people reap
I was wondering this, too. I got an invite but no information and anything
I clicked on just took me back to the same invitation.
The TMIC is plenty for me and the forum (_http://www.myelitis.org/forum/_

I FOUND AN INTERNET SITE www.hdis.com where you can order on line or by

helpful. You can sign up for automatic delivery and you get a discount, or
you can order as you need them. It takes less than a week to

this list since I found it in 2001 (I think). I was 27 (1988) when I first
started with the symptoms of TM and was not diagnosed properly till I was 34

Hi all,
The Transverse Myelitis Network has nothing to do with the TMA or TMA Forums.
It was started by anotehr member here who wanted a site where we could exchange
comments/photos/messages/info in a more face-to-face way and there is also a
Chat where you can talk to others members who are
*The Transverse Myelitis Network is another great way for patients to
communicate and compare notes. Many of the TMIC members participate there.
Our own Marieke is one of the administrators. I advocate for NMO, and work
with Sandy Siegel and the TMA crew, and I also have my own site, of
I have to respectfully add to Grace's comment below. She is absolutely correct
when she states that the groups are formed to spread awareness of TM, ADEM, NMO
and the other neuroimmunologic disorders. The TMA was not formed to hold a
monopoly on support groups. It was formed as a non-profit
I agree, Debbie, the more support groups that help more people, the more
the word gets out, the better. No quibbling here at all.
I just didn't want the people who start new support groups to get offended
if they invite people from the TMIC and we decline. It's nothing personal,
it's just
Well, it was answered before I was even out of bed.

The only thing I have to add is that if anyone has an awareness group let
me know and I can add it to the page at

I believe karma is strictly an interpersonal thing and that there are
many factors in the world which are driven by the nature of our
universe. Good and bad things happen with out regard to who it
affects. Karma had nothing to do with the plague, the 2004 tsunami,
the 1918 flu pandemic,
VERY well said, Debbie!

I've never noticed that, Kathy. Maybe it's just one of those automatic

sure you got and saw it and that it didn't get lost in cyberspace.
Does it appear along the bottom of e-mails? That's where ads usually are

When i was in Rochester, I live in a HUD-assisted building and wrote,
called and complained that the front doors were not button doors,
were heavy, required a key and a push.
Think HUD would adhere to the ADA? The courtyard facing doors had a
push bar, which would have made life easier
Add to the list of complaints: Have you noticed that at many hotels, the
ADA rooms are furthest from the elevators? And yes, you are lucky if they
have ADA rooms on the first floor. Also, the rooms often face the parking
lot and seldom the garden, pool or view? Is this discrimination?
