My mom has RA at 78 and is all but crippled and take vicadin everyday. I have OA from all the injuries and surgeries over the yrs so I can relate. Ppl are afraid to relate, we remind them that they are one mis-step away from joining us and some are callus and just couldn't care less. I tried to start a group for folks like us where I live at a local calvary chapel camp in the mtns where I live and was told it would just turn in to a big pity party by the pastor in charge ... I no longer attend his study but Harvest in Riverside Ca has one that meets once a month and its just like any other study but we can all relate to each other. Find a place with ppl that care and understand...it will do wonders for your morale.
