    It's been 50+ years since any drug was developed to treat lupus. Perhaps, if this disease were "sexier," my mom might still be alive, but lupus claimed her life -- after a 30-year battle with it -- when she was far too young to die.

    Hooray for Human Genome Sciences' Benlysta -- may it live up to its promises!
