    I was just diagnosed with dermatomyositis, and as I’m sure most people would feel, it’s very scary and very overwhelming to process. … I am only now beginning my own research to better understand this disease – what to expect and common treatments. I very much am hoping to find natural methods to support treatment as I believe we have to take responsibility for the “whole” person; body, mind and spirit.

    Thank you for offering such a website and some simple natural support treatments, as well as supporting citations to the treatments. It truly warms my heart to know there are people who care so deeply!

    With so much gratitude,
    Debbie
