Angel: Linear Scleroderma

I have had it for a little over five years and I am only twelve.

I have linear scleroderma. I have had it for a little over five years and I am only twelve. I have level 2.

It is hard to find people who understand my condition. I wish that more people could be informed about this type of disease.
