Im desperate to meet other younger people like myself to talk about my arthritis with as to be honest i dont know anyone who has the same condition as me or anyone who truly knows what its like to have these problems.It would be fantastic to hear from any other mums also and talk about how you go about life as a parents because to be honest im getting no help from anyone other then my partner and im suddenly finding myself in a huge flare up and wondering how the hell im going to "do" things.hope someone is able to help.... :oops:
