Help for help please.

Hi. Hope you are all well.

Can I ask for some help please.

My sister as been diagnosed with autoimmune disorder.

I'm 48 & I think she is 10 or 12 yrs younger.

We are quite close, but we don't talk very seriously. We txt, & when she was saying in txt (& we all know txt messages can sometimes be picked up wrong), but she's saying that the doctor as told her to get things in order ,stop work, stop driving, to get a guardian for the young kids sounds to me very serious. & I don't know what make to it.

Is the disease life threating.?

I know we could fall over & it could be life threating. But it seems like a shock to me.

She's on steroids, started to eat better.

Don't really know any more that I can say.

But can I ask please, what can I do to help her .?

Can I rush off to boots chemist & buy her loads of vitamins & that kind of stuff.?

Thanks for reading & listening.

Talk to you soon.

Keep well.
