That must be painful, so heavy. His eye is as upsetting as anything, that runs the risk of constantly getting infected and dry. Good luck to him for his next round of operations.

My roommate was watching a show on someone like this. I honestly don't think it's the same guy, though, which seems almost incomprehensible that there would be more than one person living with this kind of condition.IP: Logged |

Sadly it is far more common than one would think. quote: Types * Neurofibromatosis type I Incidence is 1:3,500 live births * Neurofibromatosis type II (or "MISME Syndrome"). Incidence is 1:25,000 * Schwannomatosis. Incidence is unknown but thought to be 1:40,000
Yes still rare but with billions of people on this planet, those incident rates represent an awful lot of people with the disease. ------------------ Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain.

I can't see the video but I think I saw something similar on MSN. Makes my problems seem insignificant. Love, Xena IP: Logged |
