Lupus Fighter

This is a video I made for awareness to show that lupus is a serious disease. I also made this video to show people that have lupus that there is hope for you and that lupus may be a painful disease but with hope and support you can do what you want. I was going for a basketball scholarship but lupus has changed my life completely as you can see. Please donate to the Alliance for Lupus!! All of there funds go for a cure!

Hi! I am 20 years old and you and I have very similar stories! I was diagnosed at 14, and I love sports! When I was diagnosed with Lupus I was not allowed to play contact sports, so I started up with swimming. I love that you posted this video! This song is so perfect...this definetly makes you a stronger person! I also wrote an article for the Lupus Foundation of Colorado when I was in Highschool! I don't know many people close to my age with Lupus so it was nice to see I am not alone =)

great video i have had Lupus for 3 years now and at first i hated it (getting the needles and having to take 20 tablest a day) but now i've just learnt to live with it and having been throught all that has made me a little more confident in myself so for all you people out there with Lupus don't worry your not alone

I too have Lupus, but have found a nutritional product to control my symptoms instead of all the meds that were hurting me even more. I'd love to help anyone looking for hope. I found mine!!! As a survivor will say....NOW I HAVE LUPUS, BUT LUPUS DOESN'T HAVE ME!!!! If you'd like you can watch my video as well!! I admire your courage!

I was diagnosed with lupus in 2010 when I had severe pain everywhere and I broke out in a rash so I went to my local doctor and he took a blood test and my blood counts were severely low and so I went to cooks hospital and I was there for a week and I have been hospitalized 5 more time and I have to take steroids everyday and lots more medicine and my family and friends are very supportive about it and if you think it's easy to have lupus and you don't have it don't say anything you don't kno

I really liked your video. I have lupus too and it is a hard disease to live with. I have more bad days than good. It seems like I'm always in pain and it never goes away. :(
