Scleroderma Support Group Summer Party






I just went to our scleroderma support group summer party and had a great time with my sclero-sisters. I got to catch up with old friends from the support group and to meet new friends. Now that I am a support group leader, I want more than anything to find a cure for Scleroderma, and I am happy to volunteer for the Scleroderma Foundation...it is an amazing organization made up of volunteers who work to raise funds to find a cure.

It has helped me so much to volunteer, to get outside myself and focus my concern on the needs of others with this disease. I am a lucky one. To have had the opportunity to have a stem cell transplant which saved my life is how I was blessed.

I am forever grateful to the Foundation for being there for me.

Love,
Victoria
