Q: MEN coping with lupus

"The greatest thing you can do in life is to tell a young boy or girl that they're 'the very best' at something - baseball, reading, art. That gives them the wonderful feeling that they can do anything -- which they can!"

This is a quote of SLE "victim", Charles Kuralt, a newrman, video-documentarian of the real America, an imperfect, humble man, whose biography shows that self-criticism is possible, and the best form of criticism for us all.

Read?

Guys,
Here is Charles, doing what he was so famous for.
His face and voice are your voice and spirit.

Old, but never dated:

Putting a face on male version SLE. That is all.

I am "cured": cost = $24/month
"Good luck and best wishes for you.
For me? I'm on temporary or permanent vacation from SLE."


Those are the closing words of my long and unofficial thread about MY
seeming-self-fix of all SLE troubles. If you can bear to read through the many postings,
all is talked-over here:

If it does not last, damn straight, I will let you know.

As of today I am my former self again.
I am ready to re-enter full, daily life.
I can do anything now.

Perhaps my case has been a fluke of luck.
Perhaps THIS is a way the "Doctors" should be moving, or at least trying.

I hate the rank and file of medicos. Be your own first-rank "doctor".

Read, act, and make waves of thought.
Someone may just be helped to reach the shore,
safe from getting dashed upon the rocks.
