BREAKING NEWS: Toni Braxton Reveals She’s Battling Life-Threatening Disease

Singer Toni Braxton appeared at a luncheon benefiting lupus awareness and research that revealed that she too is battling the potentially deadly autoimmune disease.

“Take a look, this is what lupus looks like,” Braxton said to a surprised audience as she accepted one of two Women in Achievement awards at the 8th Annual bag Ladies Luncheon reports eonline.com.

Braxton who is an American Heart Association spokeswoman also suffers from pericarditis, an inflammation of the heart lining that has left her prone to high blood pressure and heart palpitations and has interfered with her performance schedule over the years.

This has been a rough year for the singer, she’s also dealing with financial difficulties.

We hope she gets through this.

Comment by LiveLovin on November 19, 2010 at 8:32pm: To all sufferers of lupus, do your research, what works for one may not for another due to the prominent symptoms u have, eat good, exercise when you can, minimise the stressors in your life and remember to put you FIRST. You aint superman/woman no more so take it easy when you feeling pain and the chronic tiredness and work around it. personally, if i have a good day i run with it and if i aint, heck, ima take it easy. I wish you ALL the best in your battle to control this disease. Having an auto immune disease is some serious sh*t but do the best you can to ensure that you can still have a quality of life. Dont just rely on the meds, do what you can for YOU to at least feel in control of it rather than it being in control of you. Like Toni said 'this is what it looks like'......so take the opportunity to educate those around you,because sometimes looks aint all; you could be suffering but people will look at you and think........you look okay. Bless.

Comment by Kiana on November 19, 2010 at 6:19pm: @ Michelle Cirrus - Hang in there. you'd be surprised how much gains are being made with auto immune conditions

@byron/gal - you are right, Toni is a PK "preachers kid" so I'm sure she recognizes where her help comes from :-)
