Harder Word. Harder Disease. Help Me Fight Scleroderma

In 2011, I was diagnosed with scleroderma — a rare disease that most people have never heard of.

Living with it has been life-changing, and at times, isolating. It’s not just the physical challenges, but also how little awareness there is around it. That’s a big part of why this cause means so much to me.

This year, I’m taking part in Make a Move for Scleroderma to help raise both awareness and funds for everyone affected by this disease.

The money raised will go toward research, better treatments, patient support programs, and advocacy efforts to improve care and access for those living with scleroderma.

If you’re able to support, share, or donate, I would truly appreciate it.

Together, we can help bring more awareness to this disease and move closer to a cure. 💙

Rare diseases often come with uncertainty, delayed diagnoses, limited treatment options, and immense emotional and financial strain. Behind every medical term is a real person. Kelsey, your courage, strength and resilience is inspiring. Kudos to you for raising more awareness so others have to struggle a little less. You are amazing!
