Living with lupus often means navigating unpredictability—physically, mentally, and emotionally. That’s why finding moments of calm, joy, and control can be so meaningful. Two activity books, Lupus Messed with the Wrong Chick and 99 Problems but a Useless Immune System Ain’t One, offer exactly that: creative spaces designed to help lupus warriors step away from stress and focus on self-care.
Lupus Messed with the Wrong Chick is a motivational colouring book featuring 30 single-sided pages filled with floral designs and positive affirmation quotes. At 8.5 x 11 inches with a glossy cover, it is thoughtfully designed to be both beautiful and practical—each page is printed on one side only, helping to prevent bleed-through and making it suitable for coloured pencils, crayons, or pastels. What sets this book apart is its emotional tone: the affirmations aren’t generic. They feel tailored to the lupus experience—gentle reminders of strength, resilience, and self-worth, perfect for days when energy or mood is low. Whether included in a care package or given as a thoughtful gesture, it is a warm invitation to slow down and enjoy a moment of peace.
The activity book, 99 Problems but a Useless Immune System Ain’t One, brings humour and mental engagement to the forefront. This word search book offers 100 large-print puzzles (with solutions included) and over 1,200 words to find. The design is accessible to readers of all ages, and the clever, tongue-in-cheek title brings a welcome dose of levity—a reminder that laughter can be its own form of medicine. These puzzles offer a distraction from symptoms or appointments and are perfect for waiting rooms, infusion days, or quiet evenings.
Together, these activity books provide a thoughtful combination of creativity, motivation, and humour. Both are excellent gifts for lupus warriors—or for anyone who could use a bit of encouragement and joy.
