Well things just seem to be getting worse. As well as being diabetic and suffering from endometriosis and fibromyalgia, Lorii has just be diagnosed with Lupus. Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can affect virtually any system in the body. Think of it as a 'self-allergy' where the body attacks its own cells and tissues, causing inflammation, pain, and possible organ damage. We no little more than what we have read on the internet at this stage; we're going to see a specialist in a couple of weeks. One thing we know for sure though is Lupus is incurable. All said and dusted pretty grim.
If Lorii did not have enough on her plate to worry her right now her dad is going into hospital for a quadruple heart bypass operation tomorrow. I think he may be having some work on a valve too! Needless to say she is pretty worried for him. Mel, Lorii's sister, has returned from Australia for the operation too, and we are having a family meal with George tonight.
