Fragile X Responce

My new blog-buddy "D507" has recently written about Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease. Scientists say that it causes hammer toe (when the foot arch rises and the toes curve down), scoliosis, and weakness in the hands and forearms. It has nothing to do with someones teeth, though. In all, I was very surprised to see so much detail in just one blog. He was very precise when explaining what happens to people with CMT Disease. For example, he quotes, "The Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease affects the peripheral nerves which are a nervous system that resides or extends outside the central nervous system that consists of the brain and spinal cord." I would have never known this information from any other website on the internet. He gives facts that I would have never understood on another blog. This post makes it easy to comprehend the difficult jargon of science. To read this extraordinary blog, click here and enjoy!
