How the Real "Lucy" helps those with Lupus, in the sky with diamonds

I am pretty sure many of us here remember John Lennon, and his song "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds". Some may not realize how the song began and why John Lennon wrote it.

Years later, the real "Lucy" story is now banding so many of us together, through Julian Lennson & James Scott Cook, so we can once again find hope through those who dedicate something incredible for the fight against Lupus, and all of the other autoimmune illnesses that strike millions each year in our nation and around the world.

Here are some links about the story:

This brought many emotions to me this morning. I had already known Lucy Vodden had passed away from Lupus, and her Mom is still living but also has Lupus.

I wanted to share what can happen with one little 4 year old boys drawings from school.

Happy Holidays, and My thoughts are this will lift you up as it did me.

You can also get the single from I-Tunes. I have already bought it.
