As some of you may know, I was diagnosed with RF positive Polyarticular Juvenile Idiopathic
Arthritis at 18 months old, and the Arthritis foundation played a crucial role in helping me find the right medication and pediatric rheumatologist in my area- when my family didn’t even know that type of doctor existed.
Every $ goes towards funding a cure, research , and programs to empower kids like me with the multiple illnesses under the umbrella of JA. That being: Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis, Juvenile Myositis, and Polyarticular Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis- one of the most common forms of arthritis in kids- to name a few.
