Jeffrey's Journey

Thu, Oct 16 7:00 P.M. NH World (11.3)  

When faced with an incurable, debilitating and progressive disease, you have a choice to make. How do you live your life? When Jeffrey McElfresh was a child, his feet and hands were gradually losing function. At age 41, he finally learned the name of his malady: Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a rare peripheral neuropathy that disrupts signals from the brain, causing muscles in the feet and hands to atrophy. Today, Jeffrey's disability is apparent, yet he has adapted and built a meaningful life that eventually led him to become an adventure cyclist. JEFFREY'S JOURNEY follows his story over 10 days as he cycles along the Ohio River from Pittsburgh to Cincinnati. As he follows the river through old steel towns, beautiful valleys and forgotten burgs, Jeffrey gains insight into the land he's traveling across and even more about himself.

Duration: 56 minutes and 46 seconds
