What Happens in China...Stays in China

Well...let me tell you something about China......waiting...waiting Na could'nt think of anything intelligent to say. The main reason for this blog entry is to talk seriously about my current medical condition known as SCA III or Machado-Joseph Disease. At this moment my head appears to be clearing up (Ataxia Patients refer to it as "a buzz" or "dizziness" that won't go away) I am watching TV without any glasses and i can walk short distances without support. This is all I expected from this treatment (all though I am going to continue to train myself to walk longer distances) i am not confident enough to drive during daylight-because of my random eye spasms. I see my neurologist in the next couple of days and I have a flurry of questions for him. Its not every day that an ataxian gets to talk to another ataxian while riding the stationary bike.
To sum it all up this is our last night here in Shenzhen. Thats why it may be a psycho-sematic response to treatment (I'm my own toughest critic) Pretty brutal eh? Im on the verge of passing out so I'm gonna rap it up here. We leave at 6:00am and its 11:30pm local time
