Why wear a ribbon?

  "Lupus" (lUPZ167)

MDJunction to me

jackie1979"MDJ is like a family to me where I can talk to others who understand how I feel. I can as group leader help others and support them and be there
for each other for the good and bad times. MDJ has helped me come to terms with my disability and be able to live my life and be positive. I just hope that I can be there for others like my friends on MDJ have been here for me.

COMMITMENT: "True commitment begins when we reach the point of not knowing how we can possibly go on, and decide to do it anyway."

The gray ribbon is to honor my husband's fight with a brain tumor and his ongoing courage to keep his hope and faith so brilliant!

Hi Galya,

Welcome to the best group around Smile

{{{gentle hugs}}}

Emma

"When things go wrong and they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but dont you quit.

Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you can never tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar.
So, stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
Its when things go wrong when you mustn't quit"

Welcome to the group, Galya. If you go to the top of your screen you can just type in lyrica and then hit search to look up many of the lyrica conversations we have had, and boy have we had a lot. This drug seems to be a popular subject around here. And just for the record. I take 500mg a day and I couldn't survive without it. It has been a wonder drug for me.
