Hello all - I am sooooo passionate about two things in particular....lupus and fibromyaglia. I have both and I'm currently servicing my country for 17-years now as an active duty Army officer. I am becoming a true advocate as I learn more about my diseases.
I always get the question "how are you doing?" from friends, family and doctors. I always give that cocked-eye look and question them, what this morning, this after or right now. The one thing that they don't understand is that my diseases wax and whines basis on the time of day and the wind.
By blogging about my life I hope it will help others understand mine. This can give someone a feeling of what it's like to walk in my shoes.
Happy Blogging!

About Me
- down2earthlupie
- I'm a 36-year African American female, who has been serving my country in the Army for 17-years, yeah I know I look like I'm 12, you should see my braces (again after 25-year, thanks lupus and prednisone). I've been married to a fellow service member for 13-years. He's currently in Afghanistan, I was there last year. I'm going to school, working traveling a ton and going to the dog park to keep my mind off the ongoings over there. Stress causes me flares which can put me out for the count for days at a time. I hope to show you how it is to walk in the shoes of someone with a chronic illness.
