Emmitt Henderson III

Emmitt Henderson III, I was diagnosed with Systemic Lupus back in 1995. Through the years with Lupus, he went through major complications in life because of it. It has affected almost every major organ and system in his body and most current, his brain. Emmitt created his brand Male Lupus Warriors because that is exactly what he is. During his journey, he hasn’t found too many men speaking out on Lupus; so he decided to be the Voice. Emmitt speaks publicly to advocate and tell my story to the Lupus Community in hopes of inspiring others. His goal for Male Lupus Warriors is to educate, inspire and spread awareness on Lupus and to let everyone know that men get Lupus too. It is also to encourage the men to speak out on their illnesses and come together to help others. We are Strong men already, telling our story on how we are overcoming any auto immune disease or whatever Life brings us, makes us look even stronger. Emmitt speaks on Lupus and Mental Health in an effort to encourage people to not be a victim to their illness but to live the Life they intended to for themselves and their families.
