A Devastating Disease that affects 500,000 North Americans

Posted on November 16, 2009 by juicyhighlights No Comments

     Today there are 500,000 North Americans that are affected by this damaging disease called Dystonia.  Dystonia is a neurological muscle disorder that causes painful and uncontrollable muscle spasms in one or more parts of the human body.   This disease  is not widely known, but many people suffer  more with Dystonia than the Lou Gehrig’s,  Dystrophy and the Herrington Disease alone. 

Now to give  you a full description, Dystonia affects  adults and children.  Some of the body parts that Dystonia can severely damage  are as listed: The throat, face, eye lids, arms, torso and legs.  So everyone, please be more aware and educate yourself.  The insane part about this disease is that when I found this clip I thought that this was a Hoax and that something like this was physically impossible, but it turned out to be true for this 25-year-old young woman by the name of Desire Jennings.  [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEN5KGwNGeo]
