How long as sophia got left?

[Raftangle]

Her sister died at the age of 26 suffering from the same disease i was just wondering if anybody knew if its true she wont live to see 30?

[Beastie]

is this true ^^^^

[Raftangle]

Shes also 26 i think, not sure.

[Beastie]

what disease does she have? :S

[Lewis.]

Oh no :/


:O

[WHATASHOWER]

That shows how vile they are for nominating her and those who vote her out with have to live with that for the rest of their life instead they'll keep a chinless rich tory idiot in there!
Disgraceful, I'm ashamed to be british!

[Enid]

Yeah, on the first night all HMs were talking about themselves and Sophia threw a pity party and mentioned her sister had died. Odd telling that to people you've only known for five minutes.

[MissKittyFantastico]

Lupus.

I'm not sure if it's a terminal disease or if it can be cured/managed with medication?

[Raftangle]

She as lupos i heard, Shes now the same age as her sister when she died. I suppose that might shape her personality but i would have thought she would have wanted to be happy living the last years of her life, shes really bitchy.:shrug:

[Beastie]

oh no not a sympathy vote :( well all im saying is.. why worry? just because her sister died at 26 doesnt mean she will???

we would be doing her a favour if shes voted out!! than stuck in the compound that is big brother!

[Enid]

Imagine if she died in the house! :shocked:

[Beastie]

i want sophia out.. due to the fact that freddie is a better housemate than her! and whoever is up against freddie i will vote them out!!

and im sorry to hear about sophias disease!! it doesnt mean she will die soon!!

and im also not a racist at all!

[rayheartbliss]

[Beastie]

I am a Lupus sufferer, I'm in my 30's and I'm still alive & kicking thank you very much!

Lupus is an auto-immune system disorder, which basically means we have a VERY high immune system that constantly attacks our body. It affects mainly women, and is most common in races with a darker skin tone.

It is a chronic disease, which means you cannot cure it or get over it. I will have it for the rest of my life and I must manage it with medication and a sensible lifestyle.

As the disease can attack every part of your body - including the brain - people can have many different symptoms. The most common are sensitivity to sunlight (no tanning for us!), pigmentation or lesions on the skin, a butterfly shaped rash across the bridge of the nose, arthritis, fatigue, tendonitis, kidney problems, migranes, dry eyes, sticky blood & poor circulation. I have all of these symptoms and many more, but I am lucky.

Some unfortunate people can suffer from severe organ failure, neurological damage, blindness, alopecia, heart disease and ultimately death.

I was diagnosed 23 years ago at the age of 8, was in a coma for 6 weeks and very nearly died on a few occasions. At the time I was told I probably wouldn't live past 30 and I wouldn't be able to have kids. So I spent my life having a good time and enjoying myself whilst I could. I pretty much ignore everything my doctors ever tell me and I live my life as I want to, my Lupus will not rule my life.

And now I'm in my 30's and have a fantastic 3 year old son. I have to avoid the sunshine as much as possible and my skin in covered in red lesions from where the UV has scarred me. My knees hurt, I can't get through a whole day without a nap and sometimes my boyfriend has to help me get around cos i hurt like an old lady!

But I still party and I get luvdup and dance whilst the sun comes up. So please don't think that Lupus is a death sentence! I have no plans on kicking the bucket anytime soon!

But it's great that Sophia has bought some awareness to this debilitating disease, even if it was short lived! She may have the same disease as her late sister, but that doesn't mean she's going to die at the same age. Her poor sister obviously had serious complications, but Sophia looked to be in control of her disease to me. She would have known if her body was up to the challenge or not. She's been living with the disease for most of her life so she's not going to suddenly drop dead on telly now is she!

And of course, Michael Jackson was also a Lupus sufferer, so maybe that will also bring some light to it!

If you know somebody with Lupus, don't treat them like an invalid, just understand they might be extra tired now and then and maybe a little tearful. Just give them that extra support when they need it, it's not everyday we feel like this.


:wink:

[oxy80]

lupus is uncurable

don't you guys watch house at all?

[lupus]

Mind you I have to admit - I thought she was a bit of a cow really wasn't she?

And she shouldn't have stayed in just cos she's got a disease - that's stupid. You might as well say keep her in cos she's black, or cos she's female.

Doesn't matter what the reason, it's still special treatment!

[TomRocksUrSocks]

This gives me the shudders after today...

[Firewire]

wow, spooky.
