My personal message:

THE KIDS CLUB TEAM

I am walking as a member of the Uveitis Support Group to raise funds for research into ocular inflammatory diseases (OID) such as uveitis.  Some of you know that I had a severe case of uveitis that almost blinded me.   I am cured now.  Amazing, really.  

I dontate time to the Foundation.  In particular, my passion is about the kids.  Kids who don't have access to modern treatments go blind from this disease.  Did you know that the Foundation has publications that go out world wide to educate parents and schools and physicians about the care children need? 

Check out these resources that the Support Group has developed with the Foundation:

Can you sponsor me?  The Walk for Vision is this Saturday. Any amount helps. 

Love to all,

Liz
