Look: This Beautiful Woman Has Lupus and Her Supportive Boyfriend Has Her Back

The story behind the photo of the adorable couple seen around the world.

After Selena Gomez made her surprising announcement about her Lupus diagnosis, the disease has received more awareness. And now a photo of a woman with the disease and her supportive boyfriend has taken the world by storm.

Instagram user _indianrosee  has been very open and honest about the ups and downs she has experienced from the disease. Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can cause fatigue, joint pain, inflammation, and body rash. Rosee has not been shy when it comes to sharing photos of her rash and inflammation, but she recently shared a person who has been supportive through her most trying times.

The photo is of her covered in a rash with her boyfriend behind her and the caption, “Lupus sucks but bae got my back.”

Immediately, the photo became a viral hit and showed the world that no matter how difficult a situation is, having a strong support system can make the fight a little easier.

Here’s hoping that this photo inspires other people to support those who may be suffering from Lupus or other diseases. And we wish Rosee a life filled with support and strong health!
