💖 Message from Phoenix Journey Team

If you or someone you know is affected by autoimmune disease, you know some days are better than others, and some are just bad. But each person shows courage day by day making the decision to face the challenges of the ascent for that day. The important thing is to show the courage and determination needed as an affected person, a caregiver, a family member, or friend to make your ascent and be celebrated. We invite you, family, friends to come join us in making this incredible event, cause and day one for the memory books!

Sincerely, ~ Your Phoenix Journey Team
