I feel so helpless slowly watching my hands deteriorate & knowing I’m trying to minimize the effects of the disease but feeling like I’m ultimately going to loose the hands I used to know, & that I get a front row seat to watch it happen. Just needed to vent.

I am so sorry you're going thru that. You're not alone. I am going thru the same thing. I keep saying I wish it was anything but my hands...

I totally understand! I can’t believe that I can’t even open a soda or carry a grocery bag sometimes. I watched my grandmother suffer and she inspires me to keep my head up. Her hands were bent ant twisted and yet she still found a way to crochet or bake a pie. I don’t know that I’ll be that ambitious but it was nice to see that it’s doable.
Thank you @celestall, I am sorry you are going through this too, I wouldn’t wish this on anyone but it helps to not be alone in it.
