Since I’ve had Lupus for almost six years now, I should have known better to avoid any unnecessary attack. But one thing about this illness is the uncertainty of it, no matter how I try to avoid it when it hits, it hits! That’s sad truth about it and what’s worse you have no idea why you are having a flare (attack). I was actually glad that I have been feeling great lately that I’ve been busy with work and socializing with my friends. I’m kinda excited planning my 30th birthday celebration on October 28th and I was thinking of having another road trip along with my college buddies and since its going to be a long weekend, we all agreed that its time to have our backpacks ready and hit the road and hopefully the weather will cooperate and we’ll have a fantastic weekend. There was so much in my mind that I had forgotten that I was actually sick, which is good because the reminder of lupus always makes me sad.

Last Friday night, I don’t know what I’ve done wrong, just when I thought I’m having some normality in my life suddenly my knees were shaking, my whole body was trembling, I collapsed and had a difficulty in breathing. Everyone was panicking again and they’re getting ready to rush me to the hospital and I told them that I just needed to rest and assured them that I’ll be alright in awhile. I just hate it when I make my family worry. While I was lying in bed, I was singing “I Adore” in my head, I close my eyes and prayed. God reminded me of this verse and I just know that things will be fine, and it did.. Thanks to God!

    Hi sis Ems,
    Thanks God that He did not leave you nor forsake you in your moments of extreme suffering. I praise the Lord in your life that you have such a strong faith in Him that you clung on to His promise instead indulging in fear and self pity. Hang on sister, God is always on your side to take care of your every need. His love for you is such that nothing in heaven or on earth can separate you from His unfailing love. Just bask in the glory of His glorious Presence and you will experience peace, healing and deliverance. Smile. God loves you no matter what.
