Transitioning to College as a Lupus Patient
Presented by Madeline Handley
Join us for a Facebook Live event, Transitioning to College as a Lupus Patient:
Madeline Handley is a third-year Molecular Biology student at Colgate University, who has learned how to navigate a college environment whilst managing lupus. Transitioning from high school to college allows one to gain a newfound sense of independence in their lives, which can present a plethora of challenges to face and overcome. Dealing with a chronic illness such as lupus presents unique stressors in addition to these challenges, which can cause additional burden to patients. However, there are strategies young patients can utilize to prevent lupus from interfering in their pursuit of a healthy and successful college career. In this livestream, Madeline will present unique challenges related to lupus that she’s faced whilst transitioning to being a student at Colgate University and discuss the methods she’s used to overcome these and succeed during her time at school.
