Hello:

To everybody in this forum, Thanks for all the replies I have received... I am a member now..I have keratoconus...next saturday Im going to start to use glasses....This condition is not common here in Oaxaca, my mother is sort of worried for me, but Im not anymore
Im capable to take my life as normal as I want. I dont know why me, but you guys know something I dont care and Im not going to give it up. I also have a condition called bening fasciculation syndrome....both of them ...started togueter....at first I thought it was multiplesklerosis. I wonder if they have any relationship.

I didnt know anything about these rares conditions, now I know they are not going to kill me.

I really aprecciate this forum as much I aprecciate the BFS forum.

It's good to hear you sounding so positive Eduardo.

I think the scariest thing is not knowing what's going to happen. If we can get past worrying about what might happen then life is a whole lot easier and a whole lot rosier.

Take care, Alison

Hi Eduardo

I have some close friends who are Mexican but live in California. They took me to Tijuana and taught me how to make enchiladas... yummy!!!

I am glad that you feel better about having KC. This site is great and will be a great source of encouragement I'm sure.

Take care Anamaria (as the Gonzales family call me)

PS sorry that I don't have much more Spanish than that...
