Jean Hamilton - Fford

Speaker, Author, Mentor

I believe in possibilities. That's me, in a nutshell. I have baffled doctors and most everyone I know as I continue to forge ahead regardless of what others perceive as my limitations. I am blessed with CMT (Charcot Marie Tooth disease), a degenerative, genetic disease that slowly takes away the use of my hands and my feet. I refuse to believe that I have to progress at the pace most others do and refuse to be hindered by the idea of not being able to use my hands and feet. I still type with my hands and walk on my feet, though my doctors have no idea how I am able to manage it.

I still have hopes and dreams to fill and am working toward that end. I still believe that I can succeed and thrive, even if others write me off. I am here to share with others my insatiable desire to rise above and transcend whatever is put before me. There is so much more to come and I'm just getting started. I am an author, educator, artist, and VO and I love my life!
