Jim, I cried as I watched you move your hand!! I know how hard you've worked to help all of us and then to see proof that improvements can come after 20 years is a miracle.........I'm sorry that you're feeling pain when you move...(I guess none of us thought to tell you that pain comes back with movement!) There's meds for pain, so keep on moving!! I'm certain that Helen is over the top with this new trick of yours...........tell her we're all up there with her! You deserve this progress......keep it up and know that we're praying for your continued success!! Hugs!! TIAD!!! janh

It's been 20 yrs, 4 mos since I was paralyzed from the neck down due to TM. When I recline the tingling stops and I can not move my thumb no matter how much I try to. To show that I was actually moving and not just having involuntary twitching, I had my nurse tell me when to move and I moved it.
