| Introducing LupusTalk.com - Our Sister Site! Our new sister site, Lupus Talk, is now up and running! Please excuse the Off Topic post and the Sticky. Lupus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that can affect any system in one's body. Basically, the body attacks its own cells and tissues, which can cause inflammation, pain, and possible organ damage. Ninety percent of people with lupus are women. Over ONE MILLION Americans are currently living with lupus. Speaking with many YorkieTalk members, it seems that many know someone (be it an aunt, sister, or friend) that suffers from lupus. Please invite them to LupusTalk, we hope create a friendly Lupus Community for patients and family, just as we have done for Yorkies here. We started LupusTalk because we have several family members and close personal friends with lupus. Since it's a brand new site, there are not many users or posts right now, but feel free to sign up and say hello. We'd appreciate your support! Thanks! http://www.lupustalk.com Last edited by fasteddie; 05-13-2005 at 07:06 PM. |

| How heartwarming, thank you. Just over dinner tonight Robert was telling me about a very dear friend of his, Carol who suffers from Lupus. I will be sure to call her to tell her of this site.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Much luck with your new site - I know you can comfort many sufferers of Lupus....I'm married to a man with a terminal illness (NOT Lupus) and know how much the forum for his disease helped me understand...it answered many questions I never got answered by his doctors and people are so caring and understanding you can't help but feel NOT alone. Good Luck - what a great thing you're doing. |

| Thank you so much! My daughter who is 37 has it and it has attacked her blood vessel system. She gets vasculitis a lot and it worries me to death. Will certainly send her the sight! Thanks again! Pat Last edited by mybirdys2003; 05-15-2005 at 10:51 AM. Reason: typos |
