Guest guest Posted October 16, 2001 Report Share Posted October 16, 2001 Speaking for me personally, being diagnosed at age 10,I sure learned more about the world and people than school could ever teach. I had to learn to be a kid with CMT in a world without the ADA and IEPs, as MANY of us have done. I feel our young members have an advantage and special gifts non-CMT children do not have. I know just hearing from Seth, Marta, Liz and others, how mature and accepting they are already. CMT children ARE 'there' and from what I hear seeming doing quite well, in things like Scouts, school and outside activities. Great 'cues' for us oldtimers LOL ~ G Sharon Hauser wrote: The child has not even " been there " like we have, and now has to deal with this disease. At our age, it is something quite different as we lived our teenage years and forward, etc. etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
