Dear Karen,

I am sorry to hear that you have lupus. I have it too, but I am a grandmother. I am also a teacher and some of the time I work for the Lupus Foundation of America office in Florida. I would be happy to be your email buddy.

hey i'm real sorry you have to go through all of this
I'm 16 and I probably have lupus or something related to it (i haven't been to see the rheumy doctor yet) but I totally know how you feel about no one knowing about what's going on with you and feeling isolated. My parents and doctor all thought I was faking it until my test results came back positive. :(

I know it's hard, but you can get through it. What doesn't kill yah makes you stronger right? My mom keeps saying that lol. If you need someone to talk to, you can email me. It'd be nice to hear from someone like me whose going through the same thing.
