> I already had JRA from when I was about 11, I guess. And by the age of 18, my knees had already deformed and joints were wore down to a degree.
That's grim, dude. My aunt developed that after falling down a set of stairs as a toddler. Of course arthritis was in the gene pool...but it wasn't activated until her spill. She managed to be pretty active up through her early 50s, but by her 20s her spine was so fuckin cork-screwed, it took two x-rays to image it. She went at 57, my dad thinks because of cancer that developed (she was vegetarian...but she was blood type O, so that could've been why that developed), though before she went she told me she was on the way out not from the cancer, but something else she'd been dealing with since a hospital visit that got botched.
Anyways, nowadays they got lot of tech they can put in to help...maybe stem cell therapy as well.....but it's pricey. Of course, if I was fucked up like that, I'd volunteer for stem cell shit.
Scifi frauds. SF illuminates.
