NATURAL-BORN KLUTZES REACH OUT TO LEND WOMAN A HAND
DEAR ABBY: "Just Clumsy in Amarillo" (March 24) could be my
twin. I am also a klutz who bruises easily. Years ago, when
I was a brand-new EMT, my arms were so bruised and purple
from lifting stretchers that co-workers started asking if my
husband was beating me. Luckily, my husband, a submariner,
was on patrol at that time so it let him off the hook.
My husband used to tell me the only reason he didn't worry
too much about me at work was because I wore steel-toed
boots, and he suggested I buy steel-toed flip-flops and
slippers. I can walk through the house and trip over nothing
at all. I once broke all the toes on one foot sliding off an
exam table in a doctor's office.
Tell "Clumsy" to hang in there. She's not alone. Lord knows
there are a lot of us klutzes out there and she's in good
company. As long as she can keep a sense of humor about her
condition, she'll be fine.
-- ANOTHER KLUTZ IN UTAH
DEAR ANOTHER KLUTZ: I received many responses regarding
being accident-prone. While many readers shared their
"graceless" moments, others pointed out that it could be
caused by a medical problem. Read on:
DEAR ABBY: I have an inherited neuromuscular disorder called
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, also known as CMT. It is also
called motor sensory neuropathy or peroneal muscular atrophy.
CMT affects the peripheral nerves. A common symptom is short
wide feet with very high arches, weak ankles, and tripping
over our own feet. Falling UP the stairs is what we do best.
At family reunions, we sit around comparing our funny feet
and the bruises from our frequent falls.
"Clumsy" should see a neurologist for nerve conduction
testing. The extent of her frequent "accidents" and bruising
is not normal, and she needs to know what the problem is.

DEAR ABBY: You were right to tell "Clumsy" that she shouldn't
avoid her friends as that would only increase their suspic-
ions. However, she also needs to include her fiance more in
their social activities. If her friends get to know him and
discover that he is a kind and compassionate person who re-
spects boundaries and knows how to control his temper, their
suspicions of abuse will be allayed.
-- CARLA IN VIRGINIA
DEAR ABBY: As a child, my mother always chided me to "watch
out, pay attention and look where you are going." I had
bruises all over from bumping into things. At 45, I learned
from an ophthalmologist that I had NO depth perception. Now
I understand why I must look down when stepping off curbs
or drive five car lengths behind other cars, etc. "Clumsy"
needs to get a thorough eye exam and have her depth percep-
tion measured.
-- MADE SENSE OF IT
DEAR ABBY: I am 31 and have been clumsy all my life. I have
fallen on ice a few times this winter, even though I tried
to be very cautious. Thankfully, I have sustained only some
bruises and a few pulled muscles -- no broken bones.
I, too, have seen the looks, rolled eyes and heard the sighs
of concerned friends. It's hard not to become defensive when
your friends might have a negative perception of your hus-
band. I just smile and make playful reference to the fact
that this has been going on far longer than I've known my
husband.
To "Clumsy": Drink plenty of milk to keep your bones strong,
and maintain a lighthearted attitude when the subject comes
up.
