Hello! I just joined and wanted to introduce myself. I’m Jordyn (nickname Jordy) and I’m 24, bisexual, male (FtM), and have been diagnosed with MS as well as handful of other conditions with most being secondary to the overall issue. I am a full time manual wheelchair user and per my physical therapist my functional level is T6 incomplete paraplegic and my lower arms and hands are slightly impaired. Below T6 I don’t have much function or sensation. My arms fatigue easily and my grip and coordination could be a bit better. This means typing can be a little dodgy for me. Sorry for any mistakes!
I enjoy writing, taking care of my cat and dog, cooking, exercising, and playing sled hockey. I hope to try adaptive cycling soon.
I’m extremely grateful for the devotees I have been able to connect with so far and the impact they have had on my life after I got sick.
Thank you for taking the time to read this!

Welcome! It’s super interesting that you’ve had some open devs in your life pre coming here. I’m glad they could help you out. We are pretty great! Where are you from, if you don’t mind my asking?

Thank you! And I agree! Even the welcome here has been pretty great so far. I don’t mind at all. I’m roughly 30 minutes outside Rochester, NY.

Welcome from another German dev! I'm curious - did the devotees you met tell you they were devs? or did you assume they were?

Welcome from another German dev! I'm curious - did the devotees you met tell you they were devs? or did you assume they were? Thank you! They were open about being devs. One I met in person when I lived in Florida and the others have been online on other sites.

I should probably specify that I met the one in person for some fun so the conversation was already very open about what we both liked. The people I have talked to online were open about what they like in group discussions or on their profile .
