I have lupus (SLE) and Sjogren’s disease; both are autoimmune diseases and generally if you have one, you have the other as well. I have been symptomatic for many years but my doctors only diagnosed the conditions several years ago. I am in the moderate to severe stages now, which requires a considerable amount of medication to keep the symptoms as tolerable as possible, slow the progression of the disease as much as possible in hopes that a cure will be found in my lifetime, and to keep the pain levels within a tolerable level to allow me to be a good mother and caregiver not to mention attempting to hold down a freelance writing job when health allows. My hobbies are playing games with my girls when I feel healthy enough and creating pottery on a pottery wheel.

Phil needs to remove Dr. from his name because he is anything but a doctor, MD or no. He also cannot manage to do his research prior to making a show so he does not come off as an idiot.

BTW, contrary to Phil’s numbers, 1.5 to 2 million Americans suffer with lupus, many go undiagnosed yet are symptomatic. in addition, 90% are female although the disease infects males too – keeping them hostage in a body that refuses to do what the mind wants because of pain, severe fatigue, eating problems, infections, last-case scenario surgeries – medically necessary ones especially.

Phil has no idea how many lupus sufferers he turned into enemies after all the lies he told on his show about autoimmune diseases. Lupus is not “in your head.” It is a real disease that comes in different forms, attacks the body’s bad cells that cause infection while at the same time attacks and kills good cells too. Sunlight and fluorescent light exacerbates the condition often making the mylar butterfly rash even worse. Stress makes life even more difficult for lupus sufferers. Ignorance is the greatest problem going against lupus sufferers. People like Phil perpetuate the problem. It’s bad enough when one has a family member or more in denial. Nobody needs Phil’s kind of advice or therapy. He needs a therapist of his own and somebody (Oprah or whoever) needs to take his show away before he spews more lies.

And the girls should get jail time until they turn 21, then let them out.

Just common sense….

They should have let the whole lot of these wanna be gangsta’s sit in jail. Let them meet the real gang bangers who will teach them what it is like to be a victim.

I saw the mother of one of the attackers, I think her last name was Garcia (different last name than her daughter) and she was in complete denial about her daughters involvement. Basically just stating she was there and had nothing to do with this attack. But she did not try to stop it either….. The mother was a box of rocks and no doubt the daughter is no different.
