Hey all,

Checking in again, as I promised I would. I have not been around for quite a while, but I used to live here all day, in the company of about 3,000 of my closest friends.

You guys kept me alive through several years of terrifying painful illness. I'm out there living life fully now, and want to share the hope and faith that there is indeed life after Lyme!

There are many good ways of recovering your health, strength, and life. Continue your chosen path, and you will get there!!!

I'm heading out this weekend for my 20 miles running a Team Relay, for the 20 years I struggled with chronic illness from undiagnosed Lyme disease.

When I run, I personally always run for LYME, for all of you, for the joy of having a body that endures, for the knowledge that many of you here are waking up every day facing your challenges, and to let everyone know that this disease can be overcome!

I'll check back in again next week. Best wishes to you all!

Great to hear you are doing so well, I'm also living life with a certain gusto and doing well. And I too think of those with lyme challenges and try to help in my own way.

As someone recently dx'd, but having unknowingly dealt with Lyme for almost 23 years, this is so good to know!

So happy for you and everyone who has overcome this evil thing! [woohoo]
