My Sarcoidosis story

Jun 23, 2026

By: Sheri


Well I was born and raised in New York.  I got sick a couple years after 9/11. Dr. Said it was probably all the dust I breathed in. I have pulmonary Sarcoidosis. Some day's are good and some day's I want to give up. Trying to stay positive as I have 2 amazing children. I moved to Arizona 11 years ago as I wanted to keep my children safe from future happenings. I miss New York as I have family still there but I like it out west also. Hang in there and never give up. We will fight this disease. :)

I’ve heard about and read a study looking at the explosion of sarcoidosis in people who were in NYC during 9/11. My heart goes out to you!
