Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
A year ago Kirsti was diaganosed with Rheumatoid Athristis, It was a real shock to me to realise how vulnerable we really are. She has since started medication to slow the effects of the disease, and is learning to deal with the effects of Arthritis in her day to day life.
Now with odds that seem to make it nearly impossible, I too have been diagnosed with Psoriatic Athtistis, it is a chronic disease similar to other forms of Athritis but effects only them with Psoriasis.
Before the onset of the the disease I really wanted to run an indurance race, and after my diagnosis I feel that i still need to complete this challenge.
I have been ordered by the doctor to keep exercising! So this is what i intend to do........Not sure the Grim Challenge was what he had in mind......"Thanks" to Scott Gair for that one.
I want to raise money and Awareness for the Charity PAPAA. They give free support and advice to people suffering with Psorasis and Psoriatic Arthritis and do an amazing job in doing so.
I really thought that Arthritis was a disease that only effected the Elderly but have since come to realised that it effects people of all ages in all walks of life
