In 2001, is was diagnosed with ocularpharingeal muscular dystrophy. Mm upper eyelids drooped so badly, I have already had to have two surgeries. I also have trouble swallowyin, so I mostly ead my food in puree form. My Dr. was Lee Morrison fro UNM. Her study of OPMD show hundred os families in NM with this awful genetic disorder. My two sisters aslo have this genetic disorder. I also experience sever muscular pain on my arms, abdomen and legs. There are days when I cannot accomplish much physical activity. I have energy, but no strength. I also have some Vigil, Cordova, and Casaus blood in, but I think the Fresquez blood ling is the real culprit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32414509.post-20450788970167937122012-11-13T13:06:02.308-07:002012-11-13T13:06:02.308-07:00Hi my name is karen carr biehl and i have an exten...Hi my name is karen carr biehl and i have an extensive french canadian ancestry from early settler in Quebec,, Mathurin dube is the name of that ancestor I believed he was french but when there was a ydna study done on crypto or hidden jews in new france his y dna came up j2 172+ which tracks back to the middle east many thousands of years ago..Through my canadian ancestry I to opmd carriers. and other muscular dystrophy and fredreich ataxia carriers in Canada,, I have symptoms too..kattsqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13842561133805804035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32414509.post-87491897063779162632012-04-07T03:21:37.158-06:002012-04-07T03:21:37.158-06:00Hello, I am descended from French fur trapper in T...Hello, I am descended from French fur trapper in Taos, also have Trujillo-Ortiz line, plus the Hernan Martin line everywhere, and three paternal lines from Geronimo Marquez and one maternal line from him.

If anyone has more information on the name I'd appreciate it as it has been said to me that the spelling of my name is crucial. Apparently Jewish families would "code" themselves by altering the spelling of their adopted converso names in order to identify one another.<br />Greetings,<br />Silvia Sayas<br />godddess1@hotmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32414509.post-4748185985043107662009-09-22T08:10:40.765-06:002009-09-22T08:10:40.765-06:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
