Hi Shelagh, I’d like to thank you for the requested additions to your webpage. Everytime I went back, there was something new and better. You’re sure fast and efficient. I did have a look and (however) cannot find "disclosure" webpage. Is that something private? or if on the Lupus website, where is it, Please? Thanks and hugs to Shelagh in BC J

Thanks Shelagh, I found it. It’s right at the bottom of the main page. Either I’m so used to looking at the left sidebar or it wasn’t there. Hard to say because sometimes I use one of three browsers and as Andy mentions some browsers or security settings may prevent seeing it.  I tried mucking around with mine a few months ago, then figured "I don’t know the implications of what I’m doing and/or how do I make all 3 consistent".. LOL. I gave up. Hugs Shelagh J

Welcome Susie ! Andy has an idea for a card (to be shown to others). He posted about it earlier. If you didn’t see the post, perhaps he would repost it for you. Talk to us anytime. J

It was this, which could go on a credit-card sized piece of paper. LUPUS: v is for life - treatable, but never curable v can be fatal v mimics other illnesses v can take years to diagnose v is not infectious v can attack and destroy almost any organ in the body v a disease with 1000 faces v is not just "a women's disease" v is painful and debilitating v you look so well - you feel so ill Systemic Lupus Erythematosus   - hard to say, harder to live with ## Contact info for %your country% ## -- Andy Taylor [Chair, N E Lupus Group] See http://www.northeastlupus.org.uk for more!

Welcome Barbara – I am not sure if you have posted in the past – forgive me if you have. Please feel free to post any of your struggles, to vent, to whine… or even just talk about something totally off the topic of Lupus or being sick. I have found much comfort in the people here. Hope to hear more from you. Steph "Barbara Dillener" <Irish_…@webtv.net> wrote in message

Response:

Barbara, I agree.  I’m new, just diagnosed.  With not many family to discuss it with.  They don’t understand it, so I printed info out to explain it so it didn’t sound like I was "complaining" or "making excuses".  I was so happy to see this newsgroup as there are no support groups in my town….much less people who know about or understand my symptoms or accept me for who I am.  I hold onto hope during those tough times, and praise the days that I feel like I can get out of bed and go for a walk!   So sitting here for hours reading other’s comments, stories, etc. is very therapeutic for me!  I hope it is for you too.  Susie – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -Barbara Dillener wrote: > Just wanted to say how glad I am that there is a group you can talk to > when things get bad.

Response:

Just wanted to say how glad I am that there is a group you can talk to when things get bad. Lupus is hard enough to deal with at times, but when you don’t have someone to talk to its worse. Barbara

Hi Barbara, You can talk to us anytime. You’ll find sympathetic, caring readers here. Are things tough for you at the moment? Many hugs J

Response:

Hi Barbara, This is a good group. It has been very helpful to me. We would be glad to have you talk to us at any time. Tell us about yourself, if you would like to share some details. BJ-Sk. Canada "Barbara Dillener" <Irish_…@webtv.net> wrote in message
