About CMT
Charcot-Marie-Tooth, or CMT, is the most commonly inherited peripheralneuropathy and is found worldwide among all races and ethnic groups.

Discovered in 1886 by three physicians, Jean-Martin Charcot,Pierre Marie, and Howard Henry Tooth, CMT affects an estimated 2.6million people worldwide.

CMT usually isn’t life-threatening and almost never affects brain function. It is not contagious, but it is hereditary and can be passed down from one generation to the next.

Bus Trip to the Presidential Inauguration

A good deal to a twice in a lifetime event! Actually, (sans /snark) the 2013 Inauguration of President Obama will be very different from his first Inauguration. Except for the weather, things are quite different now. The mood of the crowds will not be the same as the shocked joy of 2009.

There are other buses being organized but this one is a longer visit in DC for less money and you get Snacks~
