judy Simonson is , from .
Family:
I am 41 yrs, my left arm was injured during my birth, I wt 10lb. My parents said that the Dr. broke my rt arm and severed the nerves in my lft arm. My lft eye, and arm were hurt. I can use my arm some. I don't have very much strength. At 18yrs my Dr. did a multi tendon transfer because my wrist was turned in this did help some by enabling me to use my fingers. I see people talk about their children I just wondered if there were any adults with erbs palsy? I thank my parents for not treating me like a handicap person
and showing me that I could do things in a world that was not geared to handicap people. Oh how far we have come.
