I need your help in the movement to cure arthritis

When my son Ashton was 2 1/2 years old, he was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. This was very devastating for us to hear and the course of treatment has not been easy. However, over the past three years, Ashton has come leaps and bounds from when he was first diagnosed. We are happy to report that Ashton is doing extremely well and continues to see his doctor every four months for followup. He is still taking medication, which is keeping him mobile and symptom free. We are anticipating another great summer of playing and lots of activity! He continues to be extremely active and refuses to let this disease get him down!

On May 2, 2009 we will be participating in our fourth Arthritis walk. The Arthritis Foundation continues to be a support for our family and helping to raise awareness about arthritis is very important to me and my family. That is why I am taking on the challenge to make a difference in our community by participating in the Arthritis Walk again this year as a part of Let's Move Together, the Arthritis Foundation's nationwide movement that encourages people to move to prevent or treat arthritis.

Today, one in five people suffer from the pain of arthritis. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) project that by the year 2030, 67 million people in the U.S., or 1 in 4 adults, will live with arthritis. You can join me in the movement against arthritis by helping me reach my goal. Let's Move Together to improve lives and reduce the pain of arthritis.

Much thanks,
Jackie
