July, 23rd 2020 World Sjögren's Day
Have a look at our campaign about the invisibility and the burden of Sjögren's on our specific webpage. Sjögren's is a multifaceted and polymorphous disease. It's a real burden. To live with Sjögren's is a journey: we all have our own path and have to walk it by ourselves; but we are not alone. Keep going, at your own pace. If you can, connect to yourself and connect to others in a meaningful way. We want to acknowledge the difficulties of the disease while having a constructive attitude.
"We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep"
