Ava was diagnosed with psoriatic juvenile idiopathic arthritis at 8 years old on March 18\, 2024\, coincidentally World Juvenile Arthritis Day. \n\n\n\nA talented dancer from Mobile\, Ava has been dancing since she was 2 and is part of Sheffield’s School of the Dance’s national award-winning team. With the care of Dr. Melissa Mannion\, a pediatric rheumatologist at Children’s of Alabama\, Ava continues to pursue her passion while managing her condition. Her family remains hopeful for a cure. \n\n\n\nProceeds from the Boots & BBQ Barn Bash will provide funding for Dr. Mannion’s clinic in Mobile to treat the many children along the Gulf Coast suffering from autoimmune disorders such as pediatric rheumatoid arthritis. These children face a grueling eight-hour journey just to receive their necessary treatment in Birmingham. \n\n\n\nThe Pediatric Rheumatology Clinic at Children’s of Alabama diagnoses and treats children with autoimmune disorders including juvenile arthritis\, lupus\, myositis\, scleroderma\, and various vasculitides. Clinical research aims to optimize the treatment of juvenile arthritis through diverse projects and relies on fundraisers like the Boots & BBQ Barn Bash to make this possible. For sponsorship information\, please contact Kerrie Benson\, the Gulf Coast coordinator for Children’s of Alabama\, at Kerrie.Benson@childrensal.org or 251-610-4969. \n\n\n\nAdmission is $40 per person.
