Lyme Disease Awareness Month

May is Lyme disease awareness month, but it is not just about awareness. It's about doing something. Everyone in the world can be "aware" about Lyme, and nothing would change. We need people to become aware and actually DO something with that awareness! We can talk about awareness all day and at the end of the day nothing will have changed. So what can we do to change things? I don't know and would love to hear your ideas so please let me know! This disease is so devastating, yet there are very few accurate diagnostic tests and we are forced to travel around the country and world for treatment that may or may not work since there isn't a protocol or cure for late stage, Neurological Lyme Disease. But we won't stop fighting, hoping, praying, and supporting each other! We can not only spread awareness about this disease, but about where our HOPE and PEACE comes from! 
God is so good and is how we are able to have hope and survive with this disease! "My flesh and my heart may fail, but GOD is the strength of my heart and my portion forever" Psalm 73:26

  1. Sound therapy is popularizing these days because it is a very efficient and 100% natural therapy which has no side effects. Sound therapy can not only be used in such cases but can heal lung diseases, Lyme disease etc. There is no doubt the power of Sound Healing and positive thinking is astonishing.

  3. Hi, I am very interested to read your whole story. I have been battling with an unknown diagnosis for close to two years now and have considered asking to be tested for Lymes. I would love to chat with you about how your symptoms originally started if you wouldn't mind!
