Kai never imagined that her life would spiral so far out of control. After several misdiagnoses and slumping into a deep depression, she is finally diagnosed with Lupus. After losing her husband in the midst of it all a revelation occurs in the form of her own personal mantra: "I have Lupus, Lupus doesn't have me!" Determined not to let her children see her roll over without a fight, Kai strives to create and accomplish new dreams and goals. Some that she'd never before considered, including a new career and a refined outlook on love. However, none of this comes without a few more unexpected bumps in the road. Through her quest to achieve the happily-ever-after she's always wanted, will Kai succumb to the stress from her health issues, new professional life, and personal situations, or will she rise to the occasion defying what so many others view 'sick' as being?

K.S. Oliver is an author, poet, public speaker, model and business owner who was born in New York and raised in Georgia. She is blazing a trail that many have been inspired by. The oldest of eleven children, K.S. graduated from Georgia Medical Institute with a diploma in Medical Billing and Coding in 2005 as well as Colorado Technical College in 2011 with an a degree in Business (while minoring in Criminal Justice). Since then, she’s been moving forward with building a unique and touching legacy. On May 20, 2010, following the birth of her youngest child, K.S. was diagnosed with SLE, also known as Lupus. Subsequently, she was also diagnosed with Discoid Lupus (Skin Lupus), Fibromyalgia, Pulmonary Fibrosis, Hypotension, Hypothyroids, Cricoarytenoiditis and Severe depression. With a myriad of health issues staring her in the face at the age of 25, K.S. had to make a decision on whether she would allow it to consume her or fight for the life she and her family deserved to enjoy. The choice soon turned into a mantra commonly used when discussing her life:” I have Lupus. Lupus doesn’t have me.” Taking her life story and using it to inspire others, K.S. has penned two poetry books dedicated to building a connection from one Lupie to another and helping others to understand the emotions and trials that a Lupus patient may endure. Still Standing and Affectionately 360 are poetic gems that are touching for patients of any kind, but also speak to the hearts of every individual who reads them. In 2013, K.S. was awarded as Poet of the Year for her outstanding contributions to the field of poetry.
