This organization has become an important part of my life since I was diagnosed with a disease I never heard of, Dermatomyositis. My Johns Hopkins Rheumatologist told me about it.

To this effort, Jerry is involved in many different aspects such as education, writing, helping support and answer questions from patients and caregivers, social networking and website development, and much more. (NOTE: Some things are posted under Jerry Williams but he is not the true author. This is because he manages the website.)
