You are so very blessed! My best friend was diagnosed with TM Christmas day 2009 and she passed away 8/16/2011. Be thankful for everyday that you're given and NEVER GIVE UP! God bless you!

@tracgyrl Yes i know I am. I thank God everyday that I'm alive and well. If I can ask, did she die because of TM?

Great video, your optimistic attitude is definitely the right way to go.

I got TM back in 2004, one leg paralysed other numb. I've been pretty lucky - whilst I can't run I can walk reasonably normal, although it takes a little concentration.

I've been nearly 7 years now and I swear Im still seeing small improvements on occasion. Nothing like the first few years but enough to make a real difference. So keep trying with the ankle :-)

@jamesfrbray we seem to have similar stories. it'll be 4 years in november and now i even see a little improvement. If you don't mind me asking, how old were you when it happened?

[MrRobalina]

I contracted TM when I was your age and I now walk with a cane, good on yah :-)

I got TM when I was 10 and now I'm 20 years old. When I first noticed that there was something wrong with me was the night before I went to bed. Everything started getting slower (slow motioned) when I moved. When I woke up, after 10 minutes I started feeling my energy leave my body, it was a very weird feeling that I never felt before. It took me to recover my walking skills about 2-3 years, and I still have side effects on both legs. I can't move my fingers on my left arm.

Hope you get better

I have acute Transverse myelitis..it is the worst thing in the world..

[tracgyrl]

@KatherineIrenee Yes, unfortunately she lost her battle with TM after several rounds of plasma transfusions. I look at you and it makes me so happy that there are a lucky minority that overcome this disease.
