Hope on Horizon: Original Movie Version

The 2001 version of this movie aptly promoted SD World. SD World consists of a web site and an email list. The SD World Email List is moderated by Judy Tarro. It is a free list that provides upbeat, daily email support for scleroderma patients and caregivers. The email list was founded by Judy Tarro, Sylvia Finegan, and Lyn Warnholz. Sylvia has since passed away, and Lyn has retired from list moderating.
