Just wondering as it always clashes with Breast Cancer Awareness (which I support as well) As far as I am aware there hasn't any media coverage for Lupus at all.

It is a shame that it clashes with another important disease to be aware of. Maybe it should be moved to September or November.

I wasn't away of that. Thanks for sharing. Might not get as much coverage because Breast Cancer is considered a bigger killer. Every day of the year has something associated with it. They can't possibly give everything the coverage we'd like to see for respective charities or awareness campains. In any case, I don't think we need days like that. We should be aware of these things at all times of the year, not just a specified day or week.
