Pray for them. You cant carry any extra stress in your body
I agree with others that you shouldn't stress over this, Retanda. I think that when our families are in denial about our disease, it's often because it's too painful to face our suffering. The invisibility of our disease is a factor, too, as we often look fine.
You can suggest that they learn about lupus, but if they still don't understand, you might gently tell them you won't discuss it further.😘
It is very sad and hard, but,we can only say" look it up" on Google if you don't believe... I've been struggling for about 9 years with Lupus and other auto immune disorders that follow, all I have is my faith in God and his Mercy and help from others that are not my family, so you're not alone and stay positive for your own sake and faster healing of the emotions.
I'm sorry it is hard fr your family to understand or believe you. The previous comment says education. I think in today's time there are more resources like this one to direct your family member to. Keep talking and showing them. Family deep down doesn't want you to suffer. Best to you 💜💜💜
