    Vickim, Thanks again for the words of encouragement. One of my children's books is being illustrated. I was a CG artist for films like the Hobbit, so I have art talent, but my current symptoms make doing artwork very difficult. Creative control has been handed over to a talented artist, my...

    Is my condition ALS with fasciculations

    Thank you Vicki! My life was really incredible. I was working in feature film on big Hollywood projects and very happy. Now I am stuck unemployed with these strange leg twitches and pain. I meditate regularly. Meditation helps for the anxiety a bit. I also pray. Other than that I am...
