Join my new Clubhouse Room

All things arthritis

Since late stage Osteonecrosis leads to severe osteoarthritis I feel they are under the same umbrella although different in some ways and the same in other ways.

Corticosteroid‐Induced Osteonecrosis in COVID‐19: A Call For Caution A Call For Action

I think with the new Pandemic and all the new strains emerging patients, physicians surgeons and respiratory specialists should be paying close attention because I feel that there will be a sudden influx of men women and some children developing Osteonecrosis because of the treatment of Novel Coronavirus aka Covid19.

It seems that I see far more studies and concern over individuals getting osteoporosis that they overlook Osteonecrosis causes and complications.

And I really think it’s time we not only study and examine the effects of corticosteroids on the bones but we really need to start warning patients verbally.

Avascular Necrosis Mask

Many requested masks as so many cannot find them , so I contacted a local shop in my area and we made these two designs. The mask are washable

I don’t get paid anything for or a portion of the masks just doing this as a way to help those wearing a mask support the cause of Osteonecrosis aka Avascular Necrosis.

Thank You Arizona

The good news keeps rolling in

Rare Disease Day is February 29 usually 28 on non leap years.

So as you know I have been working very hard on November 29 being National – Avascular Necrosis Osteonecrosis awareness day and all states have come on board so far but still waiting to hear from maybe 10 states.

They are doing all they can. And I am so pleased many states have issues proclamations for November 29 and many still are in the process.

Today The State of Arizona sent a proclamation for rare disease awareness we got the entire week February 20-27

And they will also be recognizing November 29

So blessed.

Hard work pays off

Thank you State of Arizona

Official Proclamation Avascular Necrosis-Osteonecrosis Awareness Day November 29

Finally Avascular Necrosis-Osteonecrosis has an official awareness date.

The date is November 29

I have been working on proclamations for several months and I am in the process of getting the awareness day Nationally recognized as well.

I’m so grateful that our elected officials took the time to talk to me.

And set a date for AVN-ON awareness

I have heard back from several officials that will also be adopting November 29 .

I have been advocating for over 5 years on Avascular Necrosis -Osteonecrosis and I am proud and grateful that our elected officials are also recognizing this awareness day.

What is a proclamation?

A proclamation is a formal way to make a public announcement or declaration. Government officials, such as mayors and state legislators, often issue proclamations to announce upcoming events or celebrations or to increase public awareness of particular issues.

I am proud to say I was issued a proclamation by my local Mayor of Youngstown Ohio

And also by Senator Michael Rulli of Ohio.

I have heard from Washington DC and it’s a longer procedure but it’s being looked at.

Right Now AVN-ON falls under the rare disease / disorder category.

In the United States, a rare disease is defined as a condition that affects fewer than 200,000 people. This definition was created by Congress in the Orphan Drug Act of 1983. Rare diseases became known as orphan diseases because drug companies were not interested in adopting them to develop treatment

Well I am hoping that now that AVN is getting recognition we can get more research to help all of us that are dealing with this painful condition.

Thank you to

Senator Michael Rulli -Ohio

and

Mayor Jamael Tito Brown – Youngstown Ohio

For helping us who suffer finally get the awareness day we deserve

God Bless You and Thank You.

Official Proclamation Avascular Necrosis -Osteonecrosis Awareness Day is November 29,2019 and every year after.
