Ariana's Stepping Out to Cure Scleroderma Page!
On July 14, 2019 my mom at only 73 years old, passed away from a disease called Scleroderma. This Saturday, September 30th I will walk a 5K in Boston in memory of my mom and for all those affected by Scleroderma.
This disease affects less than 500,000 people in the United States, therefore, does not receive federal funding. It is a chronic disease in which the body’s immune system attacks it own tissues and occurs three to four times more often in women than in men and affects children.
Help me bring more awareness to Scleroderma and to raise funds for medical research to find the cure for the disease and to relieve the suffering it causes to patients and their loved ones.
