Zak & Vault America for Zeeny
On Sunday, July 14th 2019, my mom Zeeny at only 73 years old passed away from a rare disease called Scleroderma. Throughout her 73 years she spread her love and light to everyone she came into contact with. On Sunday, September 25th, 2022 in Boston, we will walk a 5K in memory of my beautiful mom and everyone affected by Scleroderma.
Scleroderma affects approximately 300,000 people throughout the United States so does not receive federal funding. It is a chronic disease in which the body’s immune system attacks it own tissues. The name Scleroderma, literally means “hard skin” and results in thickening and tightening of the skin, as well as causing serious damage to internal organs. Scleroderma occurs three to four times more often in women than in men, and it also affects children.
I sincerely appreciate your support! Please share this with anyone who you think might want to help cure this absolutely terrible, debilitating disease.
