In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to the Lupus Foundation of America to honor the life of Paula A. Albright. Paula was one of an estimated 1.5 million people who live with lupus in the United States. Your donation will go towards lupus research, advocacy, education, support and care services, helping support the Foundation's efforts to improve the quality of life for all people affected by lupus.
Did you know?
- Lupus is a complex disease that is hard to define. It strikes without warning, affects each person differently, and has no known causes or cure.
- While lupus mainly affects women between the ages of 15-44, men and children are not spared.
- Lupus symptoms can be severe and highly unpredictable and can damage any organ or tissue, from the skin or joints to the heart or kidneys.
- Only three drugs have been developed and approved by the US Food and Drug Administration specifically to treat lupus.
By donating today, you are joining the fight against lupus. Thank you for your support and for honoring the memory of Paula.
