                        Hi, I have had TM 2yrs 5mo and 9days.  I am paralized with an indwelling cathater.  I read many stories of people who seem to recover from this disease at least so that they can function without a wheelchair.  I don't know if I'm just feeling sorry for myself or just depressed.  I live in Wisconsin so it's easy to get to feel this way in winter.  It's not that I never get out.  My husband has been good about that, taking me somewhere at least once a week.  I have a van that other people drive for me so I can get to the doctor, beauty shop, shopping, etc.  I find I get out of bed later and later every day except when I go somewhere but that is with great effort.  I am looking for a support group in Wisconsin for people with same or similar diagnosis.  I enjoy crafts, music, sewing, but I am so tired all the time I don't accomplish much.  Much of this is due to the medications I'm on and some is due to the TM.  Any information in this regard would be appreciated.  Thanks.         Cara
