Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 Hey everyone, I wanted to say thanks to everyone who responded to my post on growing out of CMT...You know I knew that we don't grow out, but a little part of me was just wishing and hoping that there is an end ahead but it looks like we're stuck with it.... I am having a rough day, not physically but emotionally....I KNOW I HAVE CMT, but sometimes I don't want to admit it to myself....I just want to keep it hidden away and pretend it's not there, but when I do..it gets worse.... That's how I have been feeling lately...like I just want it to disappear but it won't leave....I am a junior in high school and so lately I have been evaluating what I want to do for a career....Who knows...? It seems my options keep dropping out on me..People say- If you can't handle that job, it wasn't meant to be. But try telling that to a person who wants so bad to be able to pick from all the stars in the sky not just a few preselected ones....Anyways, y'all...Thanks for listening... ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 Big hug Hang in there kid. It's okay to feel the way you do. We've all done it and still do it but please remember all our CMT is different. You're young and you're seeing a guy who really knows about CMT and that can make a difference to the outcome of your condition. And always remember we love you and we're there for you. Love Sue X The important thing is never to stop questioning.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 , I know it is hard on all of us at times to see what positive things can be in our future especially when it is so easy to focus on what we might lose. We tend to resist accepting the things we don't want to give up. Sometimes we do have to push ourselves to realize that in order to be truly happy and make the most of our lives, we should focus on all that we can do. I am not saying that we have to give up. It is important to fight for the things we want most, but if life becomes more about the fight than the dream then our happiness and success would be better found elsewhere. Yes, there will be times that we have to compromise. But that is true for anyone with or without a physical disability. There are too many stars out there for anyone to be able to chase them all. Look for the ones that can satisfy your heart.
