Maria
Johannesen,
35
Clearwater
, United States
Diagnosed in
2000
It made me realize how important it was to take a moment to see the beauty around me. I started a non profit organization in November of 2008 named, Loonies4Lupus. I believe in positivity, laughter and mind over matter dealing with my Lupus. Since 2000 my Lupus has progressed to my lungs causing constant battles with Pluerisy & Pneumonia scarring my lungs. I have come to terms that though complications may get the best of me. I still have the ability to laugh and enjoy my life for what it is by my motto, "I control Lupus, Lupus does not control me." I plan on spreading that motto through awareness with Loonies4Lupus providing resources & support to others dealing with our disease.
