Julia Malewski is only 40 years old but found joint pain began to rapidly impact her way of life. With two young children to keep up with and a full-time job, she took a word of advice from her mother. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>
This is Julia\u2019s story.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>
I work for the NHS as a project officer. It\u2019s a demanding job that can see me deskbound one day, then visiting various departments in our hospitals ensuring they all have the space and equipment they need to look after their patients the next. No two days are the same.
I\u2019ve got two young children: a 5 year-old daughter and a 3 year-old son. They are a couple of little menaces – I refer to them as Bonnie & Clyde. They like to keep me on my toes.
I\u2019ve always tried to be active. I want to take care of myself so I can take care of my family. I do yoga, pilates and I run as much as time allows. I\u2019m in the process of training for a half-marathon towards the end of the year so it\u2019s important to keep moving. For me, staying active is as much about the mental benefits as it is the physical. I often don\u2019t like the thought of going for a run but I always love how I feel after I\u2019ve done it.<\/p><\/div><\/div>
