Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune condition where the immune system designed to protect the body against infections becomes overactive and creates antibodies that attack the body’s own tissues and organs, including the kidneys, brain, heart, lungs, blood, skin and joints.

There is a huge battle within the body, threatening its very existence and one has to consistently and constantly fight it as a warrior on the battlefield. May 10th is the World Lupus Day marked to celebrate the Lupus Awareness Month.
