Changing Lives
The Arthritis Foundation works with real people - people who come to us wanting take control over their lives and reduce their pain from arthritis. We are proud to say we have helped them. In fact, many program participants are now program instructors who believe in our programs and want to share what they have learned with others.
Meet Mamie Davis, St. Louis, MO
After one month in the Arthritis Foundation Aquatic Program, Mamie began to notice a difference. Now, after two years of participation, she no longer falls and more importantly, she is no longer afraid of falling. She thinks about buying a car again and is starting to look for part-time employment, because she is finally ready to take back her independence. She has shed enough weight to notice a difference in her knees, and while she used to take several pills a day for pain, she is now down to just one.
