Poker, Lupus & Celebrities...what a combination!

If you live in or near LA, this looks like a great event by Lupus LA:

Get Lucky For Lupus

Thursday February 25th
7 pm to 11:30 pm
Andaz Hotel, West Hollywood

And look at the listing of all the celebrities participating in Lupus LA charity events!  Of course, Seal,  who wore his lupus scars without explanation for a long time & now has recently gone public about suffering with discoid lupus.  Some others that I have heard of before at lupus events including Sharon Stone, whose sister has lupus, Kellie Martin,whose sister died from lupus, Nicky Hilton who has been at a bunch of events, Paula Abdul  and a few others.  But some new names for me....Drew Barrymore, Dakota Fanning, Mischa Barton and David Foster.  We need more of these big names to talk about lupus & raise awareness.   So if you see a silly movie with Jesse Metcalfe in it (also was the young gardener from Desperate Housewives that Eva Longoria had an affair with) , keep it on a little while since he supports us, show your support of him.  Thanks to everyone participating in this poker event and to pokerstars.net for participating in a lupus fundraiser.
