Maybe this has already been posted, but it's a bright spot for a fellow Lyme-sufferer.

Here's an update on Delle Donne. Sounds like a relapse, but a great article!

I wonder how she did during this past season? Can you imagine what she could have done at full speed?? She is quite a player!!

Hats off to Delle!!

This year she was a first team all-america pick, an academic all-american, and just recently chosen the 2nd overall pick in the WNBA! WOW

That's great! I hope she can beat this disease so she can have a good life and a career to boot!

On going update....

So is this the FIRST TIME that I see a celebrity admitting to life long suffering, relapses, & ongoing infection? Every other celebrity seems to recover mysteriously?

"It's just been extremely frustrating, just because this isn't the first time," she said. "This has been a five-year fight and, unfortunately, there's no cure so, at this point, it's going to be a lifetime fight . . . It's just really frustrating to know how far behind we are with this disease."
