Hi,
This is my first post here, just saying hi...
I have Erb's in my right arm, have had since birth (I turn 20 next month), and i live in Queensland Australia. I have never met or spoken to anyone with Erb's before so it's good to know that I'm not alone. Hopefully i can get to know some of you in here.

Hi Rob
Welcome to the Board. I am so glad you posted. It seems some of the other adult/obpi like us are missing.... LOL...
I was amazed when I found this website. But I was so much older then you when I found it --- I had just turned 60 and thought I was the only one in the world with this injury or at least one of the very few...
We had a Mom from Aus. posting for a while her son is your age... now we have Michelle from Scotland... we also have another girl from Scotland... lots from USA..
I live in New York and will be happy to answer any question you may have ... if I can... and if I can't some of the parents and other obpi/and tbpi will help too...
Welcome - I thought it was great when I could tell someone what happened and they finally understood...

Re: First Post
Hey Kath,
thanks for the welcome, i'm so glad i found this site. i have never been taught anything about Erb's except that it was nerve damage and that my elbow was "broken" so it's good to be able to find out for myself. I have always felt i was the only one with the injury too because, as i posted before, i have never met anyone else with it.
where abouts in New York do you live? I've seen a lot of it in the last 12 months on T.V.
Well, thank you again for the welcome, i guarantee i will have questions for you...
