Hi everyone, I decided to close down my ldbullseye.com website. After 15 years, and much better stuff now available here and all over the internet, I decided it was time. It will be shut down at the end of August.
it was a great run and I thank everyone who used it and learned something there.
I will leave the contact up with my name here for the rest of the month.

I had never visited the site before - just did now, kinda quickly - the site looks good! Sure you have to end it?

For 15 years this site has helped many, many folks. It was one of the first of its kind.
Ann-OH's educational efforts have been extremely helpful, especially at a time when there weren't many people helping other people.
I personally learned from Ann-OH and am grateful for her and her dedicated work.
If I remember right Ann-Oh had a newsletter that was very good in the early years- called the Bulls-Eye? Can you tell us more about that?
Thanks for your years of service. Sorry to see the site go down, but it will probably, at the very least, get a brown paper lunch sack with its name on it when it gets to website heaven.

Thanks for the lovely,kind words, Lymetoo and TC! The Bull's-Eye newsletter ran for about a dozen years. It was bi-monthly and went out to about 650 people - by snail mail!
If you read an issue from 2001, which is the last one available on the website, you will see how little has changed in the past 15 years.....
Robin - I am glad you took a quick look (after all these years). Thanks for thinking it looks good.
If you have the funds to keep it running, I might consider it, but I am pretty sure, now is the time for me to move on.

Ann-Ohio, Although I'm relatively "new" to the Lyme world (diagnosed Feb. 2015), it is something that has immersed a lot of my life.
Along with it, I've "met" many kind people on this site who have guided me, educated me, and made a monumental difference in my life and other lives. I don't want to even think about how my life would be right now if certain people from this site had not have dedicated their time and energy to helping me (and continue to do so).
Along with that, many of these people have inspired me to become more of an activist, and I'm doing what I can in my own way to help others.
*****Thank you for dedicating so many years to helping others through your website, newsletter, and I'm sure in many other countless ways. I have no doubt you have changed many lives for the better. ***********
