Katie started struggling with back pain at 15. At the age of 28 she had her first spinal cord surgery. After that surgery she began to experiencing muscle pain, inflammation, rashing and fatigue. Over the next 4 years she saw more doctors than she could count, had two more spinal cord surgeries to help alleviate degenerative disc disease and was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and seronegative rheumatoid arthritis. With her back fixed and finally on the right medications she was able to regain a part of her life she thought was lost. In December 2024 she gave birth to a daughter.
Meet Eliana, a sweet and caring 6-year-old who faced a tough journey with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA). For months, she struggled with mysterious pain, inflammation, fatigue, and weight loss. Eventually, she stopped walking, and inflammation began to affect her organs. Eliana was admitted to the hospital. After bravely undergoing numerous tests, the wonderful doctors at HMH Hovnanian Children's Hospital at JSUMC diagnosed and treated her SJIA. With long-term treatment, Eliana's symptoms subsided, and she's thriving in remission! She loves dancing, tumbling, and cheerleading. Eliana's resilience inspires others, and she's grateful for a second chance at a pain-free childhood.
