HAPPY SJOGREN'S SYNDROME AWARENESS MONTH! GOTTA FIND ME SOME PURPLE TO PUT ON. :) I HOPE EVERYONE HAS A GREAT MONTH.
I thought it was Blue? I have the sjogren's syndrome foundation page on my facebook page and it says blue.
I think traditionally, the awareness colour was periwinkle blue, which is in the blue/lavender spectrum. Some people see it as purple, some as blue.
The Sjogren's Foundation is promoting a "Go Bold Blue" campaign, one part of which is to consider "dressing down in blue jeans", so blue is the easiest interpretation of the colour, I would guess.

oh ok well blue it is then lol. i don't know there are certain websites that says purple so i dunno ha.
Thanks for the info! I will definitely be wearing more blue this month! ( I usually don't wear much blue, but I will make an exception!!)
Maybe because lupus is purple? Maybe because Sjogren's is pretty close to lupus and they are often bunched together, so people include it under the lupus ribbon. Don't know, just making a guess....
i guess so :)
