She has Type I Diabetes and has had for 9 years. I was always the one taking care of her and now she is helping me! She is now a 2nd year nursing student (who lives at home) and works in a hospital part time. I have only been diagnosed for about a year, but it is spreading throughout my body very quickly. My husband is getting better, but my son doesn't get it. Support of the family is sooo important. It is also great to have the support of the RA Warriors!

My husband and daughters have also been nothing short of incredible. In reference to your beautiful daughter who is doing the right thing: The best people I know are those who did not have everything "perfect" in their lives. To say someone has had a perfect childhood to me, is to say this person has learned to be compassionate through some hardships and a loving parent or mentor to follow. Compassion is the greatest virtue, the golden rule to living. She will be blessed. I believe in our fast paced modern world of "It's all about me", we have forgotten what being a family really means. She is setting a great example. My greatest supporters hands down have been you and the special people I’ve met through your blog and facebook page.

He lost his first wife to complications from RA and Lupus and he truly understands me. He believes me and knows when I need a break even before I do. I am blessed to have him.

You have raised a wonderful, compassionate daughter/best friend. I think the nicest thing for me has come from my wife. She has supported me racing motorcycles, but now that I have RA, she still has no problem with my riding anywhere, anytime. By the way, I'm getting a spot locator soon so she can track where I'm at on the computer. This was so cool reading this today Kelly (I know I’m always a couple of days behind).

I think the hardest thing for me to understand for my Mom was not the pain, but the fatigue.
