Osteo, my daughter has one of the rheumatoid varieties, diagnosed at age 14, 21 years ago. My 34 year old son also has osteo and my mother had osteo from an early age. Maybe it runs in families like heart disease, cancer, and diabetes - I've also got heart disease and diabetes and with two sisters who had radical mastectomies I check my boobs every week. Don't laugh, men get breast cancer too. Damn, getting old is hell but is still better than the alternative.
