“You have it. It’s not curable but treatable”, said my doctor. And my reaction?? I just smile and laugh. But when I arrived at home, I got depressed. Good thing, my Mom is always here supporting me, friends who would always remind me that I should drink my medications religiously and bring my umbrella because when you have SLE you are not allowed to be exposed in sunlight.
I can say that I’m in good condition now though sometimes the symptoms would appear. Yes, I know that it’s not curable but that doesn’t mean that I will give up. These days make me stronger and made me realize that I’ve got to fight for every dream. To be strong in the middle of this lupus battle is the greatest gift I can give to the ones who love and support me.
Spend each day with a smile. My mother once said that, “Just think that those medications are just your favorite candies, I love you!”
To all SLE patients, someday there will be a cure for this. Never never give up. Remember that we are stronger than Lupus.

ReplyDeleteHi. I happen to saw your blog when I was searching for Organisations about lupus. My sister died because of this horrible disease, but 1 thing I know is, that happy thoughts kept her going until the Lord has called her to him. Be Strong dear, don't let Lupus get you down. :) God bless you
