NEW ! NT-3 Editorial by Dr. Pleasure & Dr. Chance

[Guest guest]

Dear ers,

I have just uploaded the NEW NT-3 Editorial by Dr. Pleasure and

Dr. Phil Chance (CMT Experts) that was published in Neurology. 2005 Sep

13;65(5):662-3 the title is " Neurotrophin-3 therapy for Charcot-Marie-

Tooth disease type 1A. " You can find this in our Files under 'NT-

3' click folder to open, then look for 'NT-3 Editorial'. Vitamin C is

mentioned too.

And special thanks to Dr. Chance (in Seattle) who honored my request to read

this editorial and send me a copy Thanks too, to Dr. Pleasure from the

University of California at .

One thing about all this research is that 1) it sure gives ME hope, and

2) it sure gives me POWER over my CMT. I may be too old to receive the benefits

of NT-3 therapy when it becomes " commercially " available for CMT treatment, but

so many teens and children out there will benefit, I am certain. At least I will

live long enough to see this treatment become a reality! An amazing realization

for me, a kid diagnosed with CMT, and told I was 1 out of 10 people in the USA

with CMT!!!
