Randy you are still part of the TM family. You spent 3 hard years to get where you are now, and you give us all inspiration that maybe we too will improve. Please don't leave. You can always give input after what you went through. I hope you continue to do well in the future.

I joined this websight after I was diagnosed in 05. Spent 3 years trying to get walking back. I still can stand up quickly and I can't run. I guess I should just leave the site now that my neuro says I'm fine. ------Original Message------ From: Janice Nichols To: [email protected] To: I Whiddett To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [TMIC] TM and Pilates Sent: Feb 13, 2010 2:14 PM Randy, So you are telling us that you have absolutely no symptoms and you feel great? If so, I am thrilled for you, but am wondering why you are on this website.
