CariDee Spokeswoman for National Psoriasis Foundation

You know her as America’s Next Top Model. Now she’s signed on as spokesperson for the National Psoriasis Foundation. In this video, CariDee shares about the skin disease that she was inflicted with, at the age of 5 years old.

While she appears to have conquered her disease or at least kept her symptoms under control, she now aims to inspire others not to lose hope. Her message to psoriasis sufferers is that it is possible to live one’s dreams.

It is great that the National Psoriasis Foundation in America has found a well known personality to help bring about greater awareness. And such a beautiful one too! I wonder if there is anyone to speak for eczema. It’ll be wonderful to also have one inspiring role model to look up to too!

Well, going forward, I’ve decided to feature more postings on psoriasis. Psoriasis is a skin disorder that is so similar to eczema in its symptoms and effects on the mental state of the sufferer. So do stay tuned!
