2010 Lupus Walk for Hope!

I can't believe I forgot to post about this weeks ago!

The Lupus Walk for Hope is coming up in one week!!! It will take place next Saturday, September 11th in Plymouth at French Regional Park.

You can either do a walk (Free) or a 5K run ($25.00). Registration is from 9am-10am, 5K starts at 10:30 and the walk starts at 10:40! You can also register the day of.

You can join my team or donate at: https://sna.etapestry.com/fundraiser/LupusFoundation/Walk5K/team.do?participationRef=797.0.427235358

My team has reach 64% of our goal. Please help us get to 100%! I know I have said it a million times, but every dollar counts. 100% of the money raised goes towards research to help find a cure.

Even though I am in remission, every day I am symptom free is truly a blessing. I may seem like I look well, but inside the Lupus could be possibly attacking another organ of mine and I will not know until it is too late. The medication I am on just helps prevent the lupus from attacking my kidneys for now. It does not prevent it from attacking anything else in my body. Some possible targets include my heart, brain, liver, thyroid. We need to find a cure sooner than later and with your help we can!

Thank you so much for praying for me and my family, supporting us, and thinking of us. I am ever so greatful to have such wonderful people in my life! Thank You!
