In this episode we speak with two long time members of Lupus Ontario: Sandra Williams-Reid and Laura Piccione. Sandra has experienced everything from coming to Lupus Ontario as a Lupus patient with questions and concerns regarding her diagnosis more than 30 years ago, through to becoming an active member of the Lupus community and serving on the Board of Lupus Ontario. Similarly, Laura Piccione has been involved with Lupus Ontario for nearly a decade and is support group facilitator in the Durham Region of Ontario.

Today, Sandra and Laura share a bit of their Lupus story with us, and how that journey brought them to Lupus Ontario. They share how their own struggle with Lupus motivated them to help raise awareness and offer support to others going through a similar journey.
