Hello! New to this!

Good Morning and welcome to this site. There is sooo much support and information here. It has become a daily event for me to come and read posts, and gather information for myself.

Although I am not a true musician, I do play the piano and find I don’t have the dexterity that I used to have, nor the speed to play. As with everything else post GBS, there are some changes in my lifestyle to make. It is a long road to recovery, but hopefully the both of you can find some others to relate to here. Good luck and again welcome…Gabrielle

Hi Guitarman, Welcome to The Family. There are other guitar/musicians in The Family, I’m sure they will chime in soon.:)

Hi Guitar mans wife!
My son Kevin LOVES to play guitar hero on xbox 360. In the begining it was difficult, and now after we have resumed treatment, he is on the difficult level. There is hope!

Guitarman I sent you a private message. Once you sign in to the forum you will see at the top of this discussion board a place where it says Welcome, Guitarman, you can click on there where it says “Private Messages” and open my PM and it will give you a site that contains a video of a GBS person that now is able to play his guitar and it might give you hope and a goal to work toward. I worked on all the tiny muscles in my fingers, hands and wrist to get them to work like they did before. It took time and I never gave up hope. I still have some areas that need work but my range of movement has increased so much. First time I pulled up to the drive thru window at my bank and could not turn my wrist to get my reciept back was terrible. Now I can get the change and doggie biscuit they hand out for my traveling partner. Pretty bad when the teller knows my dogs name but not mine! Keep reaching for those strings!
