It continued to grow worse until my arms and hands were badly drawn, so pa ch so that I could not use them. My lefts were drawn back until my feet touched iny hips. I was as helpless as a baby for nearly twelve months. The muscles of my arms and loirs were hard and shriveled up. I suffered death manv tim^R over.
