Subject: JIA help :)
Hi, I'm 16 and new to this whole forum thing, but basically I was diagnosed 10 years ago with JIA in most of my joints and with the help of Birmingham children's hospital and my family I've been able to represent GB at sport over 20 times and just had generally had awesome opportunities. I know I've been super lucky, but the treatment and side effects of my medicines aren't always so easy and reading some stuff on here, there are people a million times worse off with arthritis! So I wanted to do something to try and make a teeny change if possible, as well as raising money in summer, but I was wondering (other than a couple of silly typos!) What other people with arthritis think about this: http:// www.youtube.com/watch?v=35ucxWRTypM . I've got some awesome comments from people about it, saying they found it helpful or whatever, but friends are bound to say that and I would love to think that this was kind of representative of other people with arthritis. Sorry this is kinda long! Many thanks, Ellie.

Hi Ellie that was brilliant I have got goose bumps all over. I know the symptoms as I too have RA, this would make a fantastic advertisement on t.v. or even given air time on Good Morning, maybe somebody will know how to go about it. Well done sweetheart XXXX
