#11 What limitations does the person have?

     When a person has gaucher disease, it means that they sometimes have blood clots, and that can cause pain in different ways. Sometimes when a person walks or jogs a long distance the pain can vary from mild, to extremely severe. Walking usually becomes a issue eventually, and people feel pain even while moving their arms, legs, head, and their body. Rarely does the disease cause a person to be in a hospital bed, but if so, then adults will be allowed extra hours off work, and kids would be let out of school early, so they can be treated. While taking time off it relaxes the joints causing less pain, and allowing the muscles to relax.
