I won't give up! I won't give up! Since my diagnosis, and more so the living life as a MALE with Rheumatoid Arthritis I keep having to tell myself that I won't give up and I will keep on living.
Since my disapperance from the site I have lost my insurance and have been fighting to get the care I need. During this I have also been in close contact with my elected officials here in Ohio since I am now an Ambassador for District 7 for the Arthritis Foundation. The closest the Arthritis Prevention and Cure Act has gotten was this year when it passed the house but is now stalled in a Senate Comittee. So the fight starts all over again when the next Congress is sworn in.
Not giving up is the most important thing, BooBoo. It takes a lot of patience and perserverance, but things almost always get better. What you are doing w/this ambassadorship is important. I want to thank you for your service in this area. We need more people like you. Peace, V
