I am twenty years old, and I have a boyfriend who is also my age and has scleroderma. I do not know what type.

All I can say is that at least once a month he has to go to the hospital for at least four days and get a sort of chemotherapy. He has told me that perhaps he won't live to be thirty-five years old.

I am asking you for help. If there is anybody that could give me a hand, or support, so I can at least be strong and keep going.

Thank you.
