me and my sister with SMA |
Hi I'm Italian, so sorry if my English is not very good. I had the diagnosy of SMA II at two years old. Now I'm 29, I haven't ever walked and always have used a wheelchair. However the problem is not me: this is my life, the illness is a part of me.
My greatest concern is my sister. For whole my life me and my parents have always thought my sister was okay even if she didn't make dna test.
She's 32. Sixteen mounths ago in order to have a baby, she made a lot of exams... and they found out from dna she's affected. It was as a bomb for my family. I'm so worried a day she'll show first signs of sma... Now she is good and have no signs: no fatigue, no cramps, nothing. And she's pregnant (thank God baby is good). Doctors said she has III or IV type, and that the signs will show soon. They said this nearly one year and a half ago.
I just want to ask if PLEASE there's someone who was diagnosticated with SMA at 32 but still has no signs, and when the first synthomps appear.
Thank so much and sorry for my not so proper language.
