Answer:

"One of my favorite activities is working in my garden."

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that one main client statement that would indicate that the nurse needs to do a follow-up would be "One of my favorite activities is working in my garden." This would indicate to the nurse that he/she must explain that gardening should be reduced, since there is no cure for systemic lupus erythematosus, the only treatments begins with lifestyle modifications, including sun protection and diet. Being outdoors and in the dirt can cause flare-ups which are difficult to be treated.
