Description

A self-help guide for youth, Juvenile Arthritis: The Ultimate Teen Guide is also useful to members of the family, friends, and caregivers of those suffering from the disease. Writer Kelly Rouba has prepared a actually comprehensive resource without making it overwhelming, to be able to help those who have the disease lead the most productive life imaginable. As someone diagnosed with a severe form of juvenile arthritis at the age of two, Rouba is very familiar with how difficult—physically and emotionally—it may be to live with this chronic illness.

Readers get an overview of juvenile arthritis from the point of view of teenagers and their parents, and the book also includes discussions related to diagnosis, symptoms of the disease, its history, and quite a lot of related conditions. Remedy options are also provided, in addition to tips on how to adapt to life with the disease including exercise, diet and therapy. A list of applicable Web sites and other helpful resources is included at the end of most chapters.
