Rheumatic disease patient education & support should be a PRIORITY, not an afterthought. I created Rheum to THRIVE so that no one has to do life with RA on their own! Katie's story shows the positive impact of self-management ed & support #rheum youtube.com/shorts/B7wgAo42Q…

At #ACR2025, occupational therapist and patient advocate Cheryl Crow @realcc shares her excitement about new research showing how lifestyle interventions — like exercise, nutrition, and sleep — can reduce disease activity and improve quality of life for people living with arthritis. #LifestyleMedicine #RheumatoidArthritis #PatientAdvocacy #Arthritis

My favorite weekend of the summer, every summer, is Juvenile Arthritis Family Camp in Washington State - there's nothing like getting the full families together to connect, share and have fun! Thanks to the Arthritis Foundation & volunteers! youtube.com/shorts/3UABM3bD3…

They say a picture is worth a thousand words - if you live with a chronic, invisible illness like rheumatoid arthritis, it can be hard to communicate the severity of it when you "don't look sick." I hope my "invisible illness photoshoot" helps! #Rheum arthritis.theenthusiasticlif…

I created the Rheum to THRIVE self-management and support program 5 years ago - it's been incredible to see so many people with rheumatoid arthritis & similar conditions go from lost, alone and overwhelmed to confident and supported! Hear their stories: arthritis.theenthusiasticlif…

Happy early birthday Dr Jean Liew "Rheum Cat," in your rheum era as always! Wonderful to see you at the Rheumatology Research Foundation's investigator meeting! #RheumChampion #RheumResearch @RheumResearch with Dr Kaleb Michaud

Transition from pediatric to adult rheumatology can be challenging - on my latest episode, I discuss ways to make this change smoother with Dr. Thomason from University of Washington Rheumatology @UWMedicine ! #Rheum #ArthritisLife arthritis.theenthusiasticlif…

One of the most interesting questions I get asked is: "Aren't you scared / sad about being on medications for RA the rest of your life?" Honestly, the answer is not complicated - I feel OK to positive about the medications because they work! #Rheum arthritis.theenthusiasticlif…
