Why NEFE MARTIN Walks for the ALR

"I walk for lupus because it has affected my life drastically. My sister past away from Lupus Septmeber 3, 2007. She was 28 years old. The youngest person in the dialysis center. She was fighting her battle with Lupus for a 7 years, and it was just a little stronger than her. She is gone, She left 2 small children age 6 and 7 behind, and my mother ... Read Moreis heartbroken over losing her. When she past i wanted to die too. So I plan on fighting her battle for her until my demise. I will do the ALR walk in NYC every October. Rain or Shine. I dont need to be featured on here or myspace or anything. I think the people are most deserving are the people actually living with Lupus. Just wanted you to know that you dont have to have Lupus to be affected by it"
