Short Bio

I had my first symptoms in 1994 (speech) and was finally diagnosed in January, 2001. I have been using a mobility scooter since 2005. My speech is still intelligible but raspy. I have little leg strength but my arms are still quite strong. Hand dexterity is becoming an issue. My breathing is affected but still quite good. I drive a handicapped van with hand controls.
