Yesterday I was feeling good and my daughter and my son's girlfriend was swimming in our pool. So I thought I am going in too! Well I had so much fun. I forgot all about having RA. We made big waves in the pool and I fell off my tube. I had a blasted just playing with the kids. Then we wanted to get out and get something to eat. That is when I... Read more Chevron
