I need your help in the movement to cure arthritis

My name is Alyssa and I am trying to help find a cure for arthritis. Soon I will be turning 13 years old and like many other young girls, I have a dream of becoming a dancer. With every dance lesson I was certain I was closer to fulfilling that dream. Then one day, I began to have aches and pains in my legs, so my doctor ran a lot of tests on me and after a while, I was finally diagnosed with arthritis. As the time went on, the aches and pains have traveled to my knees, wrists, back, jaw and my neck. Now, I am on alot of different medications to help fight this disease. There are days, that I have a lot of pain and have a hard time moving around and walking, but I refuse to let this disease get the best of me! I still take dance lessons and smile through the pain, because I know I will become that famous dancer I dream of being someday!

Please help us with our personal challenge to help find a cure for arthritis! I am planning to walk on May 3rd and asking people to please sponsor us and join our team and walk with us.
