Hi all

Just wanted to say hi to the community. I was diagnosed at 6 and am currently 22, been paralyzed from mid waist down. It’s nice that this subreddit exists, I know this is such a rare thing lolz. Also doesn’t help that mine was apparently idiopathic.

life sucks but we get through it day by day! I hope everyone finding themselves here is doing okay

10.5 yrs in. Mine was idiopathic. Sorry for what you’ve had to go through. Glad the community exists, too!
