As the parent of a child with lupus, LFNC has been an invaluable resource. We have benefited immeasurably from their informational online chats, publications, online resources and conferences. In addition, our daughter has been able to take an active role in organizing a fundraising team for the lupus walk. This has given her an opportunity to take action and meet others with lupus and arthritis, which has been very helpful to her coping with the illness.
