Mike..so sad for your news but so encouraged you have the good attitude of wanting to try and not give up. I am in wheelchair..CMT ..multiple problems..crippled legs and feet..i know of no books but I have the suggestion to look online for wheelchair exercise on you tube. They have seated tai chi classes..arm movements, core strengthening etc. i have done successfully. Also in US public tv a program called SIT AND BE FIT on daily. Half hour moving with music led by Dr. Maryanne Wilson. I do daily in my wheelchair and it makes huge difference. You can buy dvds of hers. Not know if is on you tube. I will try and see if i can actually find some links to send you. I COUNT on these visual classes..it may help you..keep at it..i admire your strength and hopeful attitudes..😚Holly
