Here is an inspirational story from Peter Kuykendall, who lives in California:


I came down with Guillain-Barre one year ago this month. Maybe I was lucky. They caught it within five days. Still in that time I went from being able to run a sub-6:00 minute mile to barely being able to walk. I was hospitalized and used a cane for months afterward. However in this one year I have regained my ability to bike, run, cross-country ski and swim. In June I was able to hike to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back. I am 47. I still can’t run as fast as I did, but I feel my speed is returning slowly. I plan to enter a running race this summer and try Telemark skiing next winter.
