A Warrior Princess!

In March our little Isabella woke up one morning and had a difficult time walking.  We thought at first that it was growing pains but a few days later we felt something else was going on.  We took her to the doctor where they ran a bunch of tests and discovered that her inflammation rate was high and she carried some antibodies.  We were then quickly referred to Children's and she saw a Rhematologist.  He discovered that she has rheumatoid arthritis.  It has been a hard journey but she is being effectively treated and we are so grateful for Children's and that Isabella is able to find joy again in activities like going to the beach and finding starfish!
