Cure JM hosted a special Town Hall featuring Dr. Kaveh Ardalan, Co-Director of the Duke Children’s Myositis Center, a Cure JM Center of Excellence. The session focused on the critical topic of tapering medications in the treatment of juvenile myositis. Families gained practical insights on managing infusions, flares, and daily medications, and had the opportunity to ask questions in a supportive, community-focused environment. The session offered both education and encouragement for those navigating the complex process of medication tapering.

Season of Gratitude
I am writing to wish you and your family the very best this Holiday Season. This time of year, especially, I am filled with deep appreciation for all that Cure JM families have accomplished to advance our mission, to improve the lives of children living with JM, and to support the doctors and researchers driving better treatments as we fight for a cure.
