Baltimore's first B'More Healthy Expo

SleepPhones had a booth at the B'More Healthy Expo this past weekend. We screened people for Excessive Daytime Sleepiness using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. And we also demonstrated how SleepPhones can help with sleeping problems. Montel Williams was there, and he told us his story about being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) and how he lives with this chronic disease. He eats many fruits and vegetable every day, in a juice. And he uses his mind to block the pain from his feet, legs, and right side of the face. He was told he would be in a wheelchair 7 years ago, but he continues to function quite well, walking around during the entire speech. I did notice that he had a limp because his right leg was stiff. He had us do some interesting experiments with our mind to show just how much the mind can control the body. I really enjoyed his speech.
