Life was progressing as expected; getting sick was never part of their plan. However, in its own distinct and sudden way, Lupus showed up in the lives of the men and women profiled in this book. Although their ages, locations and stories are different, they all share one thing in common: they refuse to give up hope, despite Lupus. Lupus: Real Life, Real Patients, Real Talk is the first book of its kind in relation to the disease. Journalist, Lupus patient and Lupus Foundation of America Board Member, Marisa Zeppieri-Caruana, sets out to find men and women across the nation who will share the hurdles of daily life when battling a debilitating and cruel disease. What she discovers is a community not broken and hopeless, but one that is optimistic and refuses to give in. These patients have encountered many obstacles - kidney transplants, open-heart surgeries, coma, and dialysis - yet they continue to persevere. They share their darkest moments and their future dreams. In addition to telling their stories, they discuss tips on how to manage and deal with the disease - emotionally, spiritually and physically. This book provides tangible information and inspiration for every Lupus patient and their loved ones. It is also an essential tool for those who are newly diagnosed and trying to navigate the choppy waters of chronic illness and daily life. Featuring Amy Kelly-Yalden, CEO of the Lupus Foundation of America, Southeast Chapter, and Magdalena Cadet, MD, FACR, Director of Rheumatology at New York Presbyterian Healthcare System, this book is not to be missed.

In the United States, chronic diseases currently account for 70 percent of all deaths, and close to 48 million Americans report a disability related to a chronic condition. Today, about one in four Americans have multiple diseases and the prevalence and burden of chronic disease in the elderly and racial/ethnic minorities are notably disproportionate. Chronic disease has now emerged as a major public health problem and it threatens not only population health, but our social and economic welfare. Living Well with Chronic Disease identifies the population-based public health actions that can help reduce disability and improve functioning and quality of life among individuals who are at risk of developing a chronic disease and those with one or more diseases. The book recommends that all major federally funded programmatic and research initiatives in health include an evaluation on health-related quality of life and functional status. Also, the book recommends increasing support for implementation research on how to disseminate effective longterm lifestyle interventions in community-based settings that improve living well with chronic disease. Living Well with Chronic Disease uses three frameworks and considers diseases such as heart disease and stroke, diabetes, depression, and respiratory problems. The book's recommendations will inform policy makers concerned with health reform in public- and private-sectors and also managers of communitybased and public-health intervention programs, private and public research funders, and patients living with one or more chronic conditions.
