About Me: After working as a writer for a civil rights legal group for 33 years, I retired on full disability 12/30/06., SSDI 6/1/07. Lived on a boat in D.C. for 17 yrs., now my partnerGordon (39 yrs) & I live on the Eastern Shore MD w/ adopted pets - Max (black lab) and Charlie (Manx cat). Would like to straighten my legs! Constricted spasms leave my knees bent. 4-AP helps. Some 8 yrs. ago, I donated blood sample to DNA Sciences' Gene Trust (GT) to help unravel MS and advance treatments. Never heard back. I'm w/c bound but transition myself w/o help. Stopped Copaxone 8/09- donut O. LDN & D3=DMD
