Marian's First Post

Hi I'm Marian,

I am ten years old, and I love soccer, swimming, and more sports but I'm battling JIA.
I am going to tell you about my journey with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis. I have had it for either two or two and a half years. Arthritis is not fun. People at my school say I'm lucky that I have a wheelchair and that I use a computer for work at school,  but I'm not, and I always say this word for word, "When you're hurting and in pain using something that helps, I'd say you're lucky that you have that to help."

But anyway, May 7th we are going to the Walk For A Cure for Arthritis.  So please donate to us children in need. Thank you if you do. I am going to tell about my journey a lot on here, so please keep checking back. I enjoy typing and blogging about this. I am only in the beginning of this Arthritis journey please help me and the others! I am writing a story/book about my JIA. I really hope that we find a cure for Arthritis. I fight it every day.
