After 23 years of playing baseball, I believe you guys never think Hank Aaron was never on the disabled list even when knee osteoarthritis sidelined him.
I heard my friends said that for every fan that joins Facebook, Genzyme will make a contribution to the Arthritis Foundation but it seems I cannot find the link to his page. Do you know the link?
Thank you so much.

Knee osteoarthritis (OA) can happen to anyone, including baseball legend Hank Aaron. Until now, Hank’s battle with osteoarthritis of the knee has been kept on the sidelines. Yet, in hopes of helping the 10 million Americans with the condition, Hank has teamed up with Genzyme, the maker of Synvisc-One® (hylan G-F 20) and orthopedic surgeon and author Dr. Nick DiNubile to launch "Get Back in the Game." The program encourages the millions of people suffering with OA knee pain to take action now and to talk to their doctor about treatment options.
As proof that he is truly "Back in the Game," Hank will walk in the Arthritis Walk on May 22, 2010 in Atlanta. For every person who joins Hank’s team, Genzyme will make a donation to the Arthritis Foundation. The link to his Facebook profile is http://www.facebook.com/TeamHank
