Why wear a ribbon?

MDJunction to me

"MDJunction to me is a life saver... when i first was diagnosed with Scheuermann's Disease i wrote a message to a page i found on google, hoping that they could help me.... you'd never know it but that weird feeling (you know that one where it feels like someone actually cares) came over me when i opened my email next day to find that someone on the other side of the world (at the American Medical Library)had read my message while i was sleeping, and there low and behold was the address to MDJunction.... well it is everything to me, i live it breathe it and love it!!!!! I have found many people who are struggling with similar issues banding together to help each other. It is the best place in the world, and i couldn't think of another place to go to meet so many lovely people....

thanks MDJunction

Hey everyone. I am new to this group and new to Lupus (diagnosed in May 08 with lupus nephritis). After reading a lot of your stories I feel better about my own experience realizing it could be a lot worse. I am a 21 year old ex-collegiate football player (thanks to lupus) and will be more than happy to give a male perspective on these topics as I am finding there are a lot more women with lupus and in these support groups.

Welcome to the group! Though I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis. There are definitely alot more women here, Lupus is much more common in women. Look forward to hearing your opinions and story
