LUPUS
About Us
Welcome all! Our group is peer-led once a month by people living just like you. We are a group for ANYONE living with lupus. We have been through our own triumphs and failures and hope to give you a sense of hope as we all come together monthly.
There are no judgments, discrimination or any negativity in our group. We support all living with lupus. Danielle (aka, Keto Lupie and director
of Laxin’ for Lupus), Dion and Emmitt (co-founders of The Lupus Dream Team) each have their own journey and ways to live it. Where the 3 of them come together is in their positivity and encouragement to empower you. They want you to be the best you can be every single day and will be here supporting you every step of the way!
A few of the topics that may be discussed, but not limited to are:
- Treatments
- How lupus affects you personally
- Friends and family reactions to you day to day
- Coping mechanisms for stress, anger, depression, loss of hope, etc…
- How lupus has changed you as a person
- Intimacy and sexuality
- Diet and lifestyle
- How to become your best advocate
WE truly look forward to meeting you!
