World Arthritis Day 2022

World Arthritis Day 2022 💚

Over the years, I’ve been very open about my journey with severe rheumatoid arthritis. I’ve shared my struggles, my victories, my surgeries and more. I don’t do it for attention — I do it because I know what it’s like to live with an “invisible” disease. I know what it’s like to live with constant pain. I know what it’s like to live with chronic and debilitating fatigue. I know how isolating it can be — and I want YOU to know that YOU are NOT alone.

I also know that it’s important to share my successes. My “good days.” And those little moments that keep me going. We should all celebrate those! I’ve learned to appreciate what’s really important — and what really matters.

A few arthritis facts:
• There are over 100 different types of arthritis.
• Arthritis is the leading cause of disability in the US.
• Kids get arthritis too.

I’ve learned that, no matter how much it hurts, you have to keep going. Ive learned that movement is medicine. I’ve learned that I am not alone.

And most importantly, I’ve learned that — no matter what — I will NEVER GIVE UP. 🙏♥️

I invite you to learn more about arthritis, the Arthritis Foundation, and how YOU can get involved by visiting arthritis.org. 💚
