Hello All,

I know I have posted this before but here it goes again. It's getting closer to the walk and I need to get started with this!

For the Lyme Walk, the goal is to have one lymie for each walker at the walk. So I am doing 3 inch squares with your stories and photos.

So for each square if you can condense your story down to around 10 sentences. I know TOUGH! But due to lack of space this is about how long they have to be.

Then on the reverse side I would like to have a photo of you, name (FIRST ONLY) for young folks (30 and under) Your age and then the state you're coming from.

Please e-mail them to [email protected].

Thank you all for your support!

This is an easy cheap way to give back to the lyme community and help out with the walk.

I would like the stories as soon as you can get them in! At the latest I need them all by May 15th.

Thanks again!

Victoria

I forgot to add the info on the Lyme Walk itself! [bonk]

update on VICTORIA...2-19-08 EVENING....

I just wanted to let everyone know that Victoria will be unable to answer any phone calls or texts on her phone over the next few days because she has been put in a drug-induced coma. *************************************

I am told that she had a very bad seizure last night after being put on a new picc line and ended up being put on a respirator in the ICU.

They are administering adti-seizure drugs and will slowly take her out of the coma over the next few days.

Please respect the family's wishes and do not call or text her until you know she can respond..

I will let everyone know.

I will be sure to forward any emails her way as soon as she is better too! The last ones reallt lifted her spirits!
Thanks

Sarah Lynch

Sarah, thanks so much for the update on Victoria; she's in my prayers that all will come out well when they bring her out of her coma! [group hug]
