I wasn't familiar with this until reading a post on the CMT/HNPP site. Someone may find something helpful there. No, I've never been to one.

thanks very much. I went to one many years ago for my sister who was looking for a stair lift.I am signed up to go to the one in New Jersey next weekend. Will be sure to tell you how it goes.

It sounds really good. The climbing wall sounds interesting. Enjoy. 👍

HI jimeka I have done "adapted climbing" before. there is a group near where I live. they put you in a very strong harness and they use a pully system to raise you up if you can't pull yourself up. It was fun. I was in much better shape then. I got all the way to the top with minimal assistance. the best part was rappelling down.

I used to love rock climbing, I specialised in it at University. There was nothing better than scaling a rock face first thing in a morning when the sun was coming up. I had so much fun when I was younger. The group I was at Uni with meet up every 5 years and those that still can, go walking or climbing. I go just to see everyone. This year we are celebrating all of us having made it to 65. 🤗🍫💐

it's funny. when i first started using a cane i was super depressed and went through it again my first time with a rollator and chair... but when i read this, i got all excited like, 'what cool things have they got on offer?' lol, i guess i'm more comfortable with my illness now. thx for sharing!

My daughter lives over 2000 miles from me, but we’d love to go together. She has CMT/HNPP, which I apparently have, too. There are so many innovative tools out there which I would never know about otherwise.
