I've been living with arthritis since I was 11 and every year I dread the winter. :( Nothing worse then cold joints that freeze up. I've decided to finally start writing about it.

It's amazing how unloading your thoughts about the "adventures" of RA on a screen can help your overall well-being! I'm in a similar boat as you; I was diagnosed in my early teens, and am now 27 and still going! Keep sharing, and posting!

SaraCaite, it's really nice to read your post, and very humbling to those of us with more years and less patience...I know "Thank you for sharing" is kind of a cliche, but I truly thank you. I have a daughter who is 25, and I'm afraid she'll have RA at some point. She likes to blog also, and is a writer, I may point her in your direction!

... I feel very much at home with your writing. Keep it up!
