Steven W Bailey Opens Up About Living with Congenital Myasthenia Syndrome: Embracing a New Chapter
Steven W Bailey, known for his role as Joe on Grey’s Anatomy, recently shared his experience with a rare neuromuscular disorder called congenital myasthenia syndrome (CMS). This condition causes muscle weakness that worsens with physical activity. Bailey had kept his diagnosis private for years but decided to open up about it to his fans. CMS affects various muscle functions, making movements like walking and speaking challenging for Bailey. As his symptoms progress, he has been using a powered wheelchair more frequently, which has influenced his acting career. Despite the changes, Bailey is embracing this new chapter in his life and career, looking forward to portraying characters who use wheelchairs in film and television.
