Below is a sample email that we
are sending to the show, we encourage you to send your story as
well.
Dear Dr. Oz:
We are writing to you today as
part of our media campaign. We have been picking different
media outlets for our network of supporters to write regarding a disease
that affects an estimated 1.5
million Americans. 90% of those are women. Blacks,
Hispanics, Asians and Native Americans are far more likely to get this
disease
than Caucasians. This disease is Systemic Lupus Erythematosus,
better known as simply Lupus.
For such a common disease Lupus
is dreadfully under publicized, misunderstood and lets just be
honest, ignored. This disease is often disabling, sometimes
deadly and almost always life altering for not only the patient, but
also for their families. Sadly, Nov. 20, 2008 marked 50 years since the FDA has approved a new treatment for
Lupus.
We ask you to spend some
time talking about a disease that is killing and disabling
thousands of women every year! We would be happy to send a
representative to talk about Lupus and it's effects. We would
also be happy to give your studio audience members each a Cure Lupus t-shirt. If you want to read more about Lupus
you can visit our website at Cure4Lupus.org, The Lupus Foundation
of America's website at Lupus.org, or the Alliance for Lupus
Research's website at LupusResearch.org.
