Name:\u00a0 Eva\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Age: 33 Yrs. Old\"Unknown<\/a><\/p>\n

Country:\u00a0 Kenya<\/p>\n

LGMD Sub-Type :\u00a0 Unknown<\/p>\n

IN WELCHEM ALTER WURDE BEI IHNEN DIE DIAGNOSE GESTELLT?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Die Diagnose wurde bei mir im Alter von 14 Jahren gestellt.<\/p>\n

WAS WAREN IHRE ERSTEN SYMPTOME?<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

I had difficulty running fast and raising my hand up with ease. I was never able also to bend and sweep the floor properly when it came to doing house chores.<\/p>\n

HABEN SIE ANDERE FAMILIENMITGLIEDER, DIE AN LGMD LEIDEN<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

No. I am the only one with muscular dystrophy in our family.<\/p>\n

WAS SIND F\u00dcR SIE DIE GR\u00d6SSTEN HERAUSFORDERUNGEN IM LEBEN MIT LGMD<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

My muscles are getting weaker by the day and that means my level of dependency is also increasing. It\u2019s hard for me to keep a personal caregiver because most of them do not have the heart, they start complaining just weeks after being employed. I am grateful for the support I get from my husband and relatives who show up to keep my house clean and assist in any way possible.<\/p>\n

WAS IST IHRE GR\u00d6SSTE ERRUNGENSCHAFT?<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Getting married and starting a family with my husband, \u00a0Creating awareness about Muscular Dystrophy in Kenya. Many people are now aware of the condition and are glad to have started because I have met more people in the country with the same condition through Muscular Dystrophy Awareness of Kenya and hoping still to do more.<\/p>\n

WIE HAT LGMD SIE ZU DER PERSON GEMACHT, DIE SIE HEUTE SIND?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Because of\u00a0 LGMD I think I have to plan my days in advance, I cannot just wake up in the morning and say, today am going out simply because transport has to be arranged, I must have an escort e.t.c. I am also very optimistic of the future and my life is influenced much with my Christian beliefs.<\/p>\n

WAS SOLL DIE WELT \u00dcBER LGMD WISSEN?<\/strong><\/p>\n

A diagnosis of LGMD\u00a0 is not a death sentence, you can live your life to the fullest doing what you can at the time. LGMD weakens your muscles but it shouldn’t weaken your spirit. People living with LGMD can work and employers should not shy away from employing us. With the research work going on, plus the trials a cure for muscular dystrophy is in the horizon, I hope it gets here sooner.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

WENN IHRE LGMD MORGEN \"GEHEILT\" WERDEN K\u00d6NNTE, WAS W\u00c4RE DAS ERSTE, WAS SIE TUN W\u00dcRDEN?<\/strong>
\nI would kneel down, raise my hands towards heaven and worship my God.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
