Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 The only famous people with RA that I can recall are Kathleen , Lindbergh's grandson, and more recently, Camryn Manheim. I have read articles about all three of them. Lindbergh's grandson was practically crippled until he was prescribed Enbrel. After that, I believe he was able to duplicate his grandfather's famous flight. There used to be Enbrel commercials on TV featuring him. As I said earlier, Camryn was on " Inside Edition, " and I believe they said she would have a live Internet broadcast about RA on Friday. Does anyone have more details on this?

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Hi: Colburn was very crippled from RA in his hands - check his more recent movies and you will see this. Also, Renoir had severe crippling RA and continued to paint, sometimes using his mouth to hold the brush, and also made himself a contraption that would roll the paintings up as he drew so that he could make large paintings. Other artists with RA were s, Klee, Grandma Moses and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec--who continued to live and work while suffering from RA or other diseases that affect bones and joints.
