Documentary film on RA & Lupus

[Guest guest]

Dear Family,

I've been married for 3 years but my wife has been living with Lupus for the

past 30. Prior to getting married, I had no idea that it was so enveloping: The

daily medications, the frequent doctor visits, and the physical and

psychological pain. To date, she's had 3 hip replacements, two shoulder

replacements, and a knee revision all because of the steroids. I've been health

all my life and to see this was a real eye-opener. That being said, I decided to

make a documentary film on the subject.

" Dealing with an autoimmune disease: Rheumatoid Arthritis and Lupus, " is

available for viewing at my website.

Visit http://www.claudeparker.com/lupus.php . It's about 30 minutes long,

emotional, yet heartwarming. But let me share this with you: My wife is in the

film and the most dificult part about the project for me was editing. There are

two spots where she cries, and looking at them over and over (during editing)

was gut-wrenching for me. I had to take a break a few times.

Anyway, please enjoy the documentary film and forward the link so we can raise

awareness. Thanks for listening.
