May is the Month for Lupus Awareness!








May is the Month for Lupus Awareness!
Band Together for Lupus Awareness.
May is the month dedicated for Lupus awareness.

May 10 is World Lupus Day
 is a day that the global lupus community joins to bring attention to lupus.
People know little or nothing about lupus. I'd say about 50% of people know a bit of lupus. Most of the time people ask m if it is like cancer, if I'm going to die soon.

Put On Purple on Friday May 18, 2012.
 Please join the Lupus Foundation of America and people nationwide on this day. Wear something purple. Please follow the link to download kit and learn more about it. It is a fun event! Send photos as well. All of the events are fun!
This is a time to raise awareness of lupus to everyone and everywhere. Lupus is a chronic, autoimmune disease that can damage any part of the body (skin, joints, and organs). It is an unpredictable and potentially fatal disease. There are an estimated 1.5 million Americans and 5 million people worldwide coping with Lupus.
Lupus awareness month is a pivot to the lupus community annual effort to secure funds to educate people and support those affected by lupus.
