My favorite so far

This book, while not as info heavy as so many of the others (like The Lupus Book: A Guide for Patients and Their Families), has been my favorite so far. It's a great resource as far as how adapt your life after diagnosis. It's a very validating read, and I'm going to recommend it to friends and family so they have an idea of what lupus is and how it impacts one's life. Another great thing about this book is that it covers all lupus; the advice given applies to all cases, from mild to life-threatening. This is why it's more general, from a scientific perspective, but it's why I found the book to be so valuable. It's just the info I've been looking for!
