Walnut Grove Teen Becomes an Advocate for Lupus Awareness

“I feel like I was kind of called,” the self- assured teenager said. “There has to be a reason for me to get Lupus, so I’ve been using it to reach out to teenage girls, sometimes girls who don’t have anything wrong with them. Living with Lupus can be really hard, but if I can do it, then anyone can overcome obstacles. People really can do anything they want to if they put their mind to it.”
