It’s like being weighed down all over your body by invisible weights. As the years go by, they get heavier. Depending on the type you have equals the amount of weight you experience. You can feel everything but aren’t able to move or breathe without assistance.

SMA can be like having a ball and chain attached to you. It pulls you back and slows you down prohibiting you from doing things, ordinary things.
