OK Lyme people - click on the link above and ROCK!
Get IN the New York Groove because that's where we will all be tomorrow.
For those of you who stood next to me on December 7, 1999 in New York City on the steps of the OPMC to object to the medical board's actions against Lyme doctors.........after we rallied in November at NIH (D.C.) against Dr. A. StrangeGuy...........
For those of you who supported Dr. ____ in 2000 as we rallied in New York City in his honor........
For those of you who stood with me next to the Hotel Pierre in New York City on June 1,2000 to protest Dr. A. StrangeGuy getting the bogus award.........when it should have been the LymeDenial Award.........
For those who met me on March 27,2001 in Albany, New York for Lobby Day to protect our right to receive adequate medical care for our many tickborne dieases.........
For those who traveled to sit in solidarity with me at the New York Lyme Disease Hearing on November 27, 2001........
For those who came back for the New York State OPMC (medical board) Reform Hearing On January 31, 2002...........
For those who cheered themselves Hoarse with me outside the Long Island, New York office in Protest of NYS Senator Kemp Hannon holding the (Lyme) Health Bill hostage on On May 29th, 2002...........
For those who returned to New York City on August 20th, 2002, protesting the bias of The Ninth International Conference On Lyme Borreliosis and other Tick-Borne Diseases (FIVE DAYS!). This Gov't funded conference HAD NO TIME/FAILED TO ALLOW presentations regarding the (real) clinical side of Lyme disease...which made you as hoarse as I was........while OUR doctors set up a competing suite right next to the conference with fabulous information..........
For all of us who travelled BACK to Albany, New York on May 6, 2003 for Lobby Day to try to pass two Lyme bills..........
And Again for NY Lobby Day 2004 on May 18, 2004.....
For those who shivered with me on November 30, 2006, by the Westchester Medical Center, New York for the Lyme Rights Rally since IDSA researcher(s) there were and still are engaging in Lyme Denial and perpetrating Lyme Illiteracy........
And then Before and After....when it all went VIRAL - into other states and countries.......too many to list..........
For those who came to New York by Trains, Planes and Automobiles, who rented and filled buses from other locations.....shared rides ..... walked.....

Thanks for listing all this history and for all your work!! I'm glad you were there when so many of us had no idea that we were part of this.
A San Francisco supervisor entered a resolution into the record this week honoring the month. I submitted my comments to the full board, and I mentioned this huge NYC rally taking place, along with all the rallies of the weekend.
Here in SF gov't, no one really gets what it means on a larger scale. If anyone wants to let the SF supervisors know what it really feels like when there are large numbers of Lyme/co sufferers,
you can email them before next Tuesday's board meeting, when they pass the resolution, at: [email protected], file #130411. And thank them for their May LDA month resolution, too!
