Juvenile Myositis (JM), is a rare but devastating disease. Approximately 5,000 children in the United States suffer from JM, an autoimmune disorder that causes extreme muscle weakness, pain, fatigue and problems with swallowing, digestion, lungs and the heart. The condition also sometimes causes rashes, usually around the eyes. If it’s not diagnosed early and treated aggressively, it can be lethal or debilitating for life. Medication can help to alleviate the symptoms of JM, but there is no known cure. Cure JM Foundation, a 501c(3) non-profit organization, was created specifically to find such a cure, while also providing support and information for families suffering from JM.
