✨Meet @littledub13 ••••• She says... “l I was #diagnosed back in #January so my road to #positive has been a little rocky but what mostly made me feel I could keep going was actually my #grandma :) she had #osteoarthritis, she recently passed away but she helped me understand that I’m strong even though I have a nasty disease that weakens my body. I want to grasp it better and be a light to others who deal with it as well so I’m working on feeling blessed because of it and not cursed for having it! Unfortunately with #RA I was also diagnosed with a rare disease called #Scleroderma, which also causes joint pain but means my #body overproduced collagen and wraps scar tissues around my #organs. There are days where all I want is to cry because I can’t use a pencil to write something down because my fingers ache, other days I can walk around with minimal pain and pretend that I’m healthy! I have had to accept the unpredictability of it and I think when you accept that it’s unpredictable you can be at ease almost because you aren’t saying that the disease has won you’re just reminding the disease that it doesn’t have that much #power over you and that you can still live a pretty awesome #life!” 🦋 ••••• Thank you @littledub13 for sharing your wonderful story 💓 #iAMawarrior #arthritismovement
