My View Series #1

I was doing some internet research on what could trigger a lupus flare and came across a magazine called Lupus Now.  It had some good articles to help lupies deal with their symptoms and learn to live with lupus.  They have a section called "My View" where they have readers respond to a question.  In the Summer 2011 issue, they asked, "What would you tell a friend who has just been diagnosed with lupus?"  I really liked some of the responses, so I'll share some of them in a series of posts.

It's going to be a fight, but you will find a strength inside you that you never thought you could have. When doors to life and normalcy shut, fight like hell to find a window. If you keep fighting back, lupus will never be able to take over your life.—Charlene
