My favourite quote is 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you'.
Life really is a roller-coaster with it's ups and downs and varying speeds. Yet no matter how hard you try to stay on an even keel, something always comes along to kick you in the teeth and remind you just how fragile life is. We are all trying to live the best we know how and to get along together. So take time to appreciate those around you and tell them how much you love them occasionally. A smile and a kind word speaks volumes.

My daughter has Raynauds and she does have a few problems in her daily life. If she has to buy milk, for instance, even in the summer she has to wear gloves to get it out of the section in the supermarket. She tends to wear at least 3 pairs of thermal gloves during the winter and a single pair during the summer if the Raynauds is causing a lot of pain.
She also needs to wear socks constantly to keep her feet warm. If she is going somewhere really cold then she takes heating pads with her.
Here is an email address which you might find useful:

Hope this helps.
