Purple & Orange

Received my lupus wristbands from Tricia, volunteer with St Thomas’ Lupus Trust this afternoon. Slipped them on and found them a bit too big for my left wrist. Felt a bit conscious wearing them - don’t want to be seen as jumping on the wristbandwagon. But then, it’s a good opportunity to spread the word about lupus.

In her note, Tricia mentioned about Lupus Week in October. Wonder what’s the actual date? Have written to ask her.

I ordered 5 (4 purple, the original colour, and 1 orange, which is the newly added colour), and plan to give the purple ones away to friends. No more orange wristbands, as I’m wearing one purple and one orange.

Anyone want one? But must promise to wear. The purple one says “Lupus? What’s that?” , while the orange one says “Life without Lupus”.

I’ll probably wear mine during off-work hours. Closet wristbander?
