Webinar: Your Treatment and Support Teams

February 16 @ 7:00 pm 8:30 pm

Cathy Ferren has been diagnosed with lupus since 1993 after being sick since 1969. She is a Life Skills Coach, Personality Dimensions Instructor and Registered Holistic Nutritionist with an additional post graduate certificate in Immune Support as well as courses in Mental Health. She has training in Reiki 2nd Degree and Therapeutic Touch. Cathy has been teaching relaxation techniques for over 35 years. Volunteering with Lupus Ontario since 1993 has been very rewarding and Cathy will share from both her personal experiences and from decades of support work with Lupus Ontario. Come learn about a wide variety of specialties, services and supports that you may want to be part of your treatment team or your support team. There will be a worksheet available on the Lupus Ontario website to help you review your teams. Advocating for yourself and building your treatment and support teams is a vital part of taking care of yourself.

This webinar is free. Preregistration required.

Sign the petition and MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

This Lupus Ontario petition is advocating to have the Ontario government approve all biologics approved by the Federal Health Agency (CADTH) added to the Ontario Drug Formulary under the Limited Use code rather that the Exceptional Access Program. The Limited Use code eliminates the administrative burden for rheumatologists and provides faster access for lupus patients.
