Cure JM treasures the unique role that grandparents play within their families and within Cure JM. The Cure JM Grandparent Alliance is the platform for engagement for all grandparents of patients living with juvenile myositis.
In October 2003, Cure JM was founded by Harriet Bollar, grandmother of a child with JM, and Tom and Shari Hume and Lisa Felix, parents of children with juvenile myositis.
At Cure JM, we are happy to provide our grandparents with resources that will help them and their grandchildren in learning to cope with JM.
We are grandparents of a grandchild living with juvenile myositis. Our mission as grandparents is to learn about juvenile myositis and support each other so we can support our grandchildren and their families. We also help advance Cure JM’s mission to give our grandchildren the best shot at a bright future ahead.
As grandparents, your love and support are the bedrock of your family’s strength. At Cure JM Foundation, we deeply appreciate the vital role you play in our community. Many of our most dedicated supporters are grandparents like you, committed to making a brighter future for all children affected by juvenile myositis (JM). Find out how you can make a lasting impact by supporting the Cure JM Foundation.
Share your love and words of encouragement with our community! We’re creating a special Digital Grandparent Yearbook filled with messages of hope, support, and love from grandparents like you.
Whether you’d like to write directly to your grandchild, offer support to all children battling JM, or share a message of encouragement with other grandparents, we want to spread gratitude and love with our community.
We invite you to read our latest issues of the Grandparent News.
