    Spondylitis Association of America's Interests
GeneralSpondylitis (pronounced spon-d-lie-tiss) is the name given to a group of chronic or long lasting diseases also called Spondyloarthritis (spon-dyl-oh-arthritis) or Spondyloarthropathy (spon-d-low-are-throp-ah-thee). These diseases are forms of inflammatory arthritis that primarily affect the spine, although other joints and organs can become involved. Spondylitis, unlike many other rheumatic (arthritic) conditions, affects young adults and commonly begins before the age of 35. Prominent researchers have stated that AS affects at least 1 in every 200 adults (approximately 0.5%) making it as common as rheumatoid arthritis.

I am a tiny angel... I'm smaller than your thumb; I
live in peoples' pockets, that's where I have my fun.

I don't
suppose you've seen me, I'm too tiny to detect; Though I'm with you
all the time, I doubt we've ever met. Before I was an Angel...I was
a fairy in a flower; God, Himself, hand-picked me, And gave me Angel
power.

Now God has many Angels That He trains in Angel pools; We
become His eyes,ears, hands, we become His special tools.

And
because God is so busy, with way too much to do; He said that my
assignment was to keep close watch on you.

Then He tucked me in
your pocket, blessing you with Angel care; Saying I must never leave
you, And I vowed to stay right there! Pass this on to everyone that
you want to have an angel in their pocket.
