Our personal message:

For 16 years, I've woken up with lupus. And for 16 years, I've looked for the good in life, the things that bring me joy while trying to bring joy and happiness to others.

However, not all lupus patients can love life while they suffer with lupus.  With no known cure, it is time to bring more attention to lupus, a disease which is largely unexplained! There has yet to be a definitive finding for the cause of lupus.

But, many researchers are on the verge of breakthroughs and donations can go a long way to keep research active.

Please help support my cause in the Walk for Lupus Now in Nashville, TN! While lupus attacks my joints as well as many of my internal organs, this cause is one I truly believe in and a day or two of pain and discomfort is definitely worth improving the chances of a cure being discovered.

Help my cause!  Together we can help others Love Life in Spite of Lupus!
