These photos show the first time Lupus started to show on the outside of my body—

I lost hair. My face broke out into swollen patches and butterfly rashes. I felt like a stranger in my own skin. I thought beauty only lived on the surface, and suddenly, I didn’t recognize mine anymore.

The diagnosis felt like a betrayal—my body, my health, my energy… all slipping. And the loneliness that followed? It was just as painful.

But I held onto God, and He held onto me.

💜 “He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.” – Isaiah 40:29 (NLT)

To anyone newly diagnosed with Lupus or living through a flare right now:
I see you. You’re not alone. Your body is not your enemy.

Healing takes time. Grace. And community.

Same girl. Different battles. But God never changes.

📸 1: Flare-up fatigue.

Fam, meet the newest addition to this Lupus fight — the Ash Fights Lupus Action Figure aka Ashley Lupus 💜✨

From sunscreen and pill bottles to water cups and Wi-Fi, she stays ready so she ain’t gotta get ready. Cuteness is the weapon, awareness is the mission.

Because when you’re “beautifully made,” even your toughest battles become your boldest victories. 🦋💻📱💊

“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” — Psalm 139:14 💫

😫 Lupus doesn’t just change your body; it changes your life. But through every scar, flare, and season of healing, I’ve seen God’s faithfulness. 🙏🏽

1️⃣ me just diagnosed, fighting confusion, pain, and fear.
2️⃣ me before it showed its hand.
3️⃣ me now.

From swelling and sores to reclaiming my smile and confidence, this journey has tested me, but it has not broken me. And won't break you either, baby.

“He gives beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.” -Isaiah 61:3

This is for anyone facing physical changes due to illness: You are still beautiful. You are still worthy. You are still here for a reason.

‼️Today is World Lupus Awareness Day!

This is what Discoid Lupus looks like. These scars are mine, but they also belong to so many people silently living with this disease every day. I used to hide them. But not today.

Thank you, Lord. 🙏🏽

If being vulnerable helps even one person feel less alone, it’s worth it. Because nobody fighting lupus should feel like they have to shrink themselves to be accepted.

Today, I’m standing in the light on purpose.

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; He rescues those whose spirits are crushed.” — Psalm 34:18 (NLT)

Seen or unseen, we’re still here. Still worthy. Still covered by God.

Self-care can't be selfish. Whether it’s a nap, a good book, or just some quiet time, taking care of ourselves is essential as chronic illness patients. Listen to your body and give yourself love. For more support, visit https://ashfightslupus.komi.io/. 💜

👀 Between the unexpected flare-ups that wreak havoc on your skin, the malar rash and the swollen joints, nose and eyelids* - who else is ready to sucker-punch Raggedy Ann Lupus?

The itching, scars, pain from a simple hug, and even fabric scraping against your arms can be unbearable. I never know when a flare-up will hit, but I fight through it every time. Thick moisturizers help contain the symptoms, and my new anti-inflammatory diet is going to help even more.

With the proper treatment and a good care team, you can fight back against the symptoms.
*Disclaimer these photos are from previous years and do not reflect my health now.

God reminded me yesterday, ‘Rest is your portion,’ and I can’t wait to see what He means. Flare-ups are temporary, and with God’s strength, we can always bounce back. ‘I’ll make up for the years of the locust, the great locust devastation.’ - Joel 2:25 MSG. To my fellow lupus warriors, self-care is essential.
