Arthritis Today Magazine - "Getting The Word Out"


Arthritis Today Magazine visited Wrightsville Beach, NC on December 21st, 2009 for a photo shoot to be published as their cover story in the March/April 2010 issue.
Bryan D. Vargo interviewed me prior to the photo shoot. Bryan is the Lifestyle and Online Editor of Arthritis Today for the Arthritis Foundation.

Susan Siracusa, Art Director at the National office for Arthritis Today and Kevin Garrett, Photographer, are pictured with me. What a delight to meet them, and though we did the shoot in somewhat chilly temps it was so exciting I didn't even notice. *(note everyone is wearing jackets)

Arthritis Today's March issue will feature a few ways in which I've learned to cope with Rheumatoid Arthritis by changes in lifestyle and diet.
Getting the word out is a goal we both share. There are many ways to cope with Rheumatoid Arthritis and manage the flares of this disease.

The photo shoot included me "Walking" at Wrightsville Beach...which is my favorite exercise!!!!
Bryan and Susan chose December 21st for the shoot, it was truly a "window of opportunity" because NC soon dipped into record lows the following week.
The Arthritis Today team were all so gracious, and I appreciate their efforts to make me feel comfortable. I truly enjoyed our day together. Thank you!!!

Special thanks to Stephanie Moore, of "Moore Photography" who shot these 'Behind the Scene' photos and Ty Downing who made a really nice video.
You are fabulous!
