Greetings!! I just happened to be surfing today and found this site, so I thought I'd join and introduce myself.
My name is Joe, and I'm a 30-year-old software engineer from Ohio. I was born with a form of MD called Spinal Muscular Atrophy. My symptoms started to appear within the first few months of life, and I was officially diagnosed at that age of 9 months. Doctors gave me a prognosis of 5 years as early onset SMA is typically fatal at a very early age, but I have been proving everyone wrong my whole life. By now, however, my disability has progressed to the point where I have very little movement in my arms and legs, and I'm virtually dependent on others for everything.
Nonetheless, I'm very interested in making contact with single, healthy, attractive, 20-something or 30-something females who would be interested in a potential relationship with a guy like myself. I'm intelligent, ambitious, a bit shy, and although not the best looking guy around, attractive enough to deserve a beautiful woman by my side. Also, did I mention I'm a software engineer and have a good job that allows me to work from home? ;D
Ladies... if you are out there and want to begin a correspondence with me, I'd love to hear from you!!!

Hey, Joe. I'm not the attractive female you were hoping for, but wanted to say hi. I have SMA type 2, and am a 31-year old web entrepreneur.
Welcome!

Thanks wheeledone! Nice to meet you! I'm also a Web designer, but for a large company. I build Web applications that interface with the company's HR database, so employees can file expense reports, timesheets, purchase requisitions, etc. all online. Yeah, very boring.

Feel free to tell us more about yourself and to post photos if you want to. Notice how she just slyly sneaks that in... "you can post photos, if you want to. *bats eyelashes*" Sneaky.
