Thanks, Ann.

And it isn’t just Lyme.

I have a friend who works for NOAA as a fish expert. He injured his elbow on the job and can’t do part of his job. They are trying to fire him. He has worked there for over 25 years.

Also had a friend with long Covid who was fired because she struggled with her oxygen tank and it wasn’t a good look for a receptionist. [cussing]
