What is Scleroderma?

At our last meeting, a healthy looking young lady attended. She was talking to her friend about a fund raising event that she was holding to raise money and awareness for Scleroderma. It turns out, she herself has the condition, “Scleroderma”. She explained it to the group that it is a condition where skin and other soft tissue cells grow and do not have a mechanism to turn off.

Let’s try to support her in her efforts. The event’s details are below, and you can learn more about Scleroderma here: http://www.scleroderma.org/chapter/ohio/index.htm
