Hiya Chrissie

I am from the UK too! I live in Scotland but use this site for support rather than anything in the UK because they are more tailored for parents and young kids with erbs.

I know in scotland now they actually have a specialist Erbs team working from the Victoria infirmary which is pretty awesome.

Janny, I am also gutted about the camp! i was definately prepared to travel to meet some people with erbs 2! where in Scotland are you?

Hi, well I was born with erbs, I am 56. You are doing a awsome job with the erbs issues. I did not like theropy ether as a child. My mom stop trying with my erbs when she first saw me climbing a tall tree at 9. I learned to adapt my way to my limiations like climbing a tree basicly 0ne arm. Its funny how things work out in life. By doing thing my way I end up with my erbs diving a semi for 20 yrs with out a ticket or accident and I am a Padi Master Diver and dove over 500 dives since 1981. I like warm water to at 60 ft looking at creatures.

Best Wishes and tryies,

Tom
