I can do it with my eyes closed, but with them open my left hand misses. It's called ataxia, and it does affect leg coordination too.

I'm still walking (refer to first sentence).

Yeah. I wouldn't be able to pass the sobriety test if ever stopped by cops.

I can't stand and have my eyes closed without wobbling.

Yep I use a wheel chair on bad days, and cane on good days.

Craig hits his eye or somewhere else...He hasn't walked for about two years...its been over six years since he could walk only short distances with a cane.

Hey Joel,

When I could not reach my nose, I definately was not walking on my own or really at all....

I am now most of the time able to get my nose. I use a cane now.

I do remember as I was getting BACK to walking that I couldn't touch my nose....using a walker then....
