People came together to support loved ones diagnosed with Lupus and share their personal stories.
"I was officially diagnosed with lupus in 2006. But after years and years, probably 10 years of misdiagnosis," said Lynnai Jay."When I was first diagnosed, I knew no one with it. My goal now is to not have anyone be in that position. I wear purple literally everyday, sometimes my hair is purple. Something is purple and so that's my one way to tell people about it," said Jay.
People with lupus can experience significant symptoms, such as pain, extreme fatigue, hair loss, cognitive issues, and physical impairments that affect every facet of their lives.The walk through Fairmount Park aims to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars every year."This is our signature event to celebrate and support the lupus community.
Despite the advances in science over years to help manage the disease, there's still no cause or cure.The group raised more than $160,000 for this event and close to $6 million over the 32 years.
