People who suffers from arthritis need to go through lot of stress, treatment and medicines. Its not easy to go through the process, they should be giving special attention and care so that it will help them to come across such disease.Arthritis Care is doing awesome job and its a great initiative.

Sometimes we’re really shielded from the reality and I hope the film opens the eyes of people who really didn’t understand before.

For those of us that have JRA or RA, this perception can lead to just one of the many mental and emotional battles that we fight to overcome.

Thanks again for a great post.

I have RA and SLE-not JRA but I’ve had it for 20 years. My 18 yo daughter has had Lupus for 4 years….this helps people with any kind of severe chronic pain disease, especially young people. But so many of us that are adults have been yelled at for “looking good” but needing a handicap sticker on our cars… Thanks for Sharing, and thanks so much for the Arthritis Foundation of Scotland for alerting people that JRA is a horrible disease – and so many people are ignorant about it (not because they are haters,but they just don’t know).My daughter had a lot of problems with other kids at school bc she missed so much and was on a special program (a 504 plan) for health problems so she got special help when she missed tests,etc. But again, bc she “looked good” they called her a faker. It’s hard for adults to deal with these diseases, but it’s very hard for kids/teens- that already have so much on their plate…Thanks for sharing!
