Founder's Welcome

Welcome to Ardent Cerebrations: Musings of Lupus Survivors! The Network. I started a simple website, Ardent Cerebrations: Musings of Lupus Survivors! while still bedridden from a major flare in 2005, to introduce myself and my disease. Since then I have come through many health, financial, and family crisis. I found the internet to be a great source for information. I have also entered an online Web Development degree program. Participating in online groups led me to find therapy through blogging and sharing over the internet.

2008 marked the beginning of taking charge of my symptoms. I established The Mission based on my new philosophy of thinking holistic: Surviving The Disease requires healing The Mind, The Body and The Spirit.

My current website is a collection of blogs dedicated to each of these aspects of my being. The Life and my Twitter chronicles everyday living. Positive response to my Blogspot sites and MySpace led me to use my web development skills to establish a new social networking site to collaborate with fellow bloggers. Ardent Cerebrations: The Musings of Lupus Survivors! Last year I broke from a cocoon, my own metamorphosis into a new butterfly, this year I plan to fly.

Welcome fellow survivors to The Network. Join me in The Mission. You are invited to spread your wings here, share your passionate thoughts, exchange information, and collaborate with other groups.
