At the conference we were able to meet so many great people. The parent Networking session kinda kicked the whole thing off. It was nice to swap stories with other mothers going through the same things. We also attended a lot of great workshops. Some of the things I have learned to implement in our home: The medical Journal - keep every bit of health history in binders so that you have it at all times accessible. A plant based diet is healthier. Fruits and vegetable are natural anti-inflammatory. While meat fats are inflammatory. Also Albacore tuna has more of the Omega 3. Nordic Naturals sells a taffy type that does not up set the stomach. We also found that the V8 fusion is a delicious way to sneak in more fruits and veggies.
We also have realized that this has its effects on the entire family. I may only have one child with arthritis but they all have to deal with it. The time it takes at all the doctors, watching her suffer when she is sick or having trouble getting around, and the added stress it puts on me all takes away from the other children. I hope that we can all really learn to take it one day at a time and always love each other even though sometimes it's hard.
