If you have anything orange in your wardrobe, please put it on today. We are walking in Peachtree City tonight to raise awareness for Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy. It's a misfire of the sympathetic nerve and causes a pain like a blow torch. It's as though barbed wire were wrapped around your body. Even the brush of your clothing can cause excruciating pain.
My sister-in-law has RSD. Sometimes it's all over pain and sometimes it's reserved to her extremities. She has to wear a boot on her left leg all the time just to walk. It kills me to watch the pain in her eyes. She hides the pain so well that sometimes I forget she has any issues. She is amazing. I am so proud to walk for this disease today. Please put something orange on today!!!
It's the MOST wonderful time of the year!
