Patients and their friends, family members and other supporters recently walked together to raise awareness in the fight against Sjogren's Syndrome, a disease that affects about four million people nationally.
    
Lynn-Anne Spitzer, an East Meadow resident and a patient, volunteers for the Sjogren's Syndrome Foundation and a local coordinator who helped organized the fourth annual Walkabout at Roosevelt Field on March 20.
