"Davis Woman's Mission: Supporting Sjögren's Patients Through Diagnosis Struggles"

After struggling for 15 years to get a proper diagnosis for Sjögren's syndrome, a lesser-known autoimmune disease, Rebecca Lobo, a Davis woman, is now looking to help others by creating a holistic skincare line and advocating for patients.
