There is an urgent need to increase public awareness of lupus and its consequence among those at greatest risk for the disease.

LFA Representatives Will Appear on ABC's Good Morning America

August 24, 2006

Public awareness of lupus will get a giant boost on Thursday, August 31 when representatives of the Lupus Foundation of America appear on ABC's Good Morning America sometime between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time.  (Time subject to change due to breaking news events.) Dr. Susan Manzi, a member of the LFA Medical-Scientific Advisory Council, will present an overview of the medical aspects of lupus. Kelly Drury, a member of the LFA, Illinois Chapter Board of Directors and a national spokesperson for the LFA, will discuss her personal case of lupus and explain to GMA's nearly six million viewers the serious impact lupus can have on individuals and families. This is an excellent opportunity to bring urgently needed national attention to lupus. Please share this message with others and encourage them to watch Good Morning America next Thursday, August 31 at 8:00 a.m. Eastern.
