Quote from: "2good2btrue"OK..I have another view of his hands from the 02 announcement. By the way, I am 46 and am anaemic too. My hands and legs bruise easily, and my skin is starting to wrinkle in certain positions....especially when I'm dehydrated. But then again, I am an interior painter, and don't wear gloves. My bad.Bruising and LUPUS>>>.It is called "platelet function abnormality". Basically, the platelets are there, BUT they don't work right. "The "new bruises" you are describing sound much like what I get. The capillaries will spontaneously, with no impact or cause, break and bleed in the surrounding tissue. Sometimes when these happen, I can feel a sort of stinging sensation. At times, I can go for long stretches without any problems, but then they stop working and pop up with new "bruises". Lupus is a condition that affects the skin as well...My mother had it, and died from it. What killed her was when her lungs had filled up with fluid, and she had died in the ambulance....but was rescusitated, after 10mins, only to be in a coma and a vegetable. She died 33 days later. So when it comes to Lupus (hair-loss, skin eruptions from the sun, swollen joints and pain etc) the treatment can be worse than the disease. God bless.Sorry to hear that, I know I lost my childhood friend due to lupus she was only 49 yrs old. I know how she was feeling. She was always inside never going out, she had hair loss, anyways the same sympton as your mom. may they rest in peace.

It does upset me when people say things about MJ.. comments such as his hands look elderly is not nice. He suffered from Lupus and Arthiritis and lets not forget the Vitiligo affected his skin so much.None of us are perfect... and i dont know what perfection is unless we judge from the artificial and airbrushed images the magazines present us.To me those hands are beautiful because they are Michaels hands. What i wouldnt give to hold those hands, to kiss them, to squeeze them.... he is so beautiful.
