I have been feeling pretty well. But the last few weeks my toes have hurt on one foot. I think it is from overdoing it on the exercise. I exercise whenever I’m bored so I exercise a lot. My mom told me to take it easy on the exercise until my foot stopped hurting. So […]
Sometimes it’s doing the simple things in life that someone with Wolfram syndrome has trouble doing. One morning last week my mom was going to work and she was going to drop me off at work. We were heading out the door when she remembered she didn’t put back on her wedding rings. She went into […]
Through the holidays at work there were Christmas trees up in several of the rooms. When I was passing through one room, I saw a tall shadow and I said hello but no one said anything. So I took my cane and poked at it and realized it was not a person but a tree. How embarrassing! […]
I dressed up in a Santa hat and wore a bell when I went to work. The bell jingling as I walked down the hall warned my fellow employees that I was coming. My bosses liked this because then they knew where to find me. But this gave me an idea. I was going to […]

Last summer, we had a successful research clinic, with 24 patients and their families attending from all over the world and the US. We welcomed three new patients to our group this year and in a whirlwind 4 days, we performed 22 MRI scans and over 350 individual appointments! Since then, we have identified additional […]
Last week I visited my neurologist. He asked how I have been feeling. I told him that I have been feeling fine but I am very tired. I sleep 12 hours at night and I take two hour naps a day. He said maybe my problem is that I am sleeping too much which can […]
Well I managed to drive my mom nuts this week. I have many items in my house that talk to me so I can function better. But this week my watch stopped working. It was a talking watch. Without it I have trouble knowing what time it is. Time is important in our lives. We […]
