Juvenile Arthritis In Canada

The days go by and Marianne are not alike. Sometimes they are like those of all children. But some days, it was so wrong with his joints that simple little things, like buttoning a blouse or simply get out of bed is an ordeal. Since the age of 6, the girl suffers of juvenile arthritis as a child in 1 000 in Canada.

Now aged 9 ½ years, Marianne has inspired the story of Bigoudi, a tale for children suffering from juvenile arthritis written by Ginette Legendre, a retired nurse. But it is his mother, Nadine Dumont, who was the soul of this document.

"I just want to cry with," said the mother at the newspaper Le Soleil, the launch of the book, in speaking of when she was diagnosed. In search of information, Ms. Dumont also noted the lack of educational material for young patients, but also to their young friends and parents with small buds.

Because of what "not nice", the mother has heard. Parents described the small "capricious" when it fails to stand alone. Children dealing with the pet when it came into class stroller past the others. Some time ago, she went to class to explain to other students why Marianne was sometimes good and sometimes less.

All too often, people believe wrongly that the arthritis is a disease of old age, "says Anne-Laure rheumatologist Chetaille. This belief has the unfortunate effect of delaying the diagnosis and early treatment. It is possible to delay or even stop the development of this disease of the joints.
