one single survival plot with different variables

Haiyan.Gao
Hello,

Could anyone help me with the following problem:
 
I am looking at the effects of different diseases on patients' long term  survival following a cardiac surgery. Is it possible to give one single  survival plot containing the survival curves for all the patients, those  with diabetes and those with pulmonary disease? The problem here is  that all the groups are overlapped, I can not generate a single variable  with 3 values indicating the 3 groups.
 
Any advice will be highly appreciated.
 
Best wishes,
haiyan
