This video features stretching exercises that are an important part of rehabilitation for JM patients. The video was created for Muscular Dystrophy patients but still applies to JM patients.
Please check with your doctor before starting any stretching or exercise program.
At Cure JM, we want all our information to be accessible to you and your family. We have compiled all of our video resources in one place for you to view at your leisure.
We are continually moved by the creativity and unwavering passion that our families exude in their DIY fundraisers that make our mission possible. My Mission,
Sammie Fish was 14 when juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM, a rare form of juvenile myositis (JM) changed her life in 2017. A doctor’s warning that she might never reach remission, tied to a lifetime of medication, shook her world. But Sammie, now 21, didn’t back down. Today, she’s a college grad, a new teacher in her dream job, and Co-Chair of Cure JM’s Ohio Chapter alongside her mom. She walks for herself, for kids like her, and for a cure. That’s why hundreds of Cure JM families and friends across the nation join Walk Strong, because every step pushes us toward a JM-free future
Membership is free and we’ll connect you with a network of support, encouragement, and resources.
To have your fundraiser matched, add “DIY Match” in the memo of your online gift or check.
