Happy Friday Everyone!
As we get ready for the weekend, we want to spotlight four articles. We have an article about a man with Parkinson’s who uses social media to benefit the community, as well as an update an MS categorization. We also have two PW contributions– one story by the husband of a woman with CRPS and scleroderma, and one article from a cystinosis patient.
Sit back and enjoy this week’s Editor’s Choice.
