Ha! Once, in the early stages of my illness (I'm actually better now!) I was having trouble with the muscles in my sides. I was swaying back and forth from the waist as I walked. So I thought maybe I could figure out a way to stay more stable, and I took the kids for a walk down the street to practice. I tried swaying my hips from side to side so that my upper body would stay vertical. My kids imitated me, and off we went. Some fellow in a pick-up truck drove up behind us and shouted "Nice strut!" out the window. So I called it the Myasthenia Strut. It didn't really work, but it was worth a try.
