                        Hi, My nephew (brother's son) has just been diagnosed with Myofibrillar Myopathy (desmin storage myopathy).  He is now 3 months old & has been hospitalized since birth.  He just had to have a tracheotomy last Friday.  He is unable to swallow or breathe on his own.  I have not been too successful in finding a whole lot of literature/information on this disease.  Have you (or anyone else) been able to find information/literature? If so, can you please direct me as to where I could do the same.    ~Message posted in 2001:  How is your grandaughter?  What are some of her symptoms?
