Savannah is doing physical therapy twice a week. She is in "week seven". She says it is not helping. I (Mom) say it is not hurting. We have our 5th Orencia infusion next week at Children's Hospital in Birmingham. I am seeing improvement, but Savannah lacks energy and her feet still hurt pretty badly some mornings. I am not posting as much on Savannah. After a while, you just get tired of talking about JIA. I do not want juvenile arthritis to define Savannah...she is so much more. Her life is just a different normal than the average kid. But, what truly is average?!
Savannah is the Arthritis Walk Honoree for this year in the Montgomery, AL area. I hope Savannah's story spreads awareness about Juvenile Arthritis Also, I hope it helps other kids and their families cope and know they are not alone with their battle with JIA.
