Hi ALL

I want to Wish Every One a Good July 4th -
and Many Better ones to come --

I want to tell you that you can
Get Well Again-- I Have --

I was sick as Hello for 20 Long yrs
with both Lyme and Babs --

I was so sick that I thought about
-Doin My Self In - Thousands of Times -

Even made my self a promise that if
I was not getting Better in a year I
would pull the plug in one year from that day-

Well I passed the One year day and have
been feeling Perty Good for awhile now --

I still have alitte way to go but
I am Sure I am going to make it --
-- You Can TOO --

A couple of things to Remember-

Today is the First Day of the Rest
of Your Life --Use it--

Each Pill you take-
Gets you One pill closer to being Well Again --

Do what You Have to do to get
Healthy again --

Its Only money -- You can get more-

You Have to- Take Control- of Your
situation - Only You can Do this -

Always have a plan B and plan C --

If your doctor is not helping you
- Move On -Dont waste time -

The 3- Good Doctors- I have had
I knew were Good Doctors after 5 minutes
of my First visit --You will know too

Your doctor can only show you the
Path to Fallow- the journey is yours to make-

Make SURE to Look for co infections--
If you have some you will not get
much better till you treat them Also -

There are not many things you have
100 percent control of in these diseases

But you have 100 percent control over
what You put in Your mouth--

Dont make yourself sicker because
potatos chips taste good -

You have to Eat Good to Be Good --

Drink Lots of Tea or water --
at least 2 gallons a day --

If you dont have a Big glass of
some something next to you right now -
You are Not Drinking enough

Take Meds- ON Time -Dont miss any doses-
This is real Important--

Dont be scaired of ABX -No Reason-

Make getting Well your #1 priority-
Take care of Yourself First--
then worry about Others second-

They can handle things till you get
your health back --

Read as much as you can--
Hi speed internet is worth every penny-

Keep a daily health Log--
rate symptoms 1 to 10-ect
Keep track of meds taken and effects--

You will gather Good info doing this--

Realize that we are All geni pigs
at the moment this is changing tho-
but its going to be years before
the Best Treatment is found --

Write and post on Lymenet your complete
-- Symptoms List -
Make it Clear Compleat and Easy to read-

Spend some time writing your list-
do a Good Job -

I can not stress How Important this is
for You to do--

Doing this Can and Will save you months
of valuable Time -- It did me --

You will get Better info(answers) back -
Quickly--

Up Date your Symptoms List every 3 months-

You have made a Huge step in getting your
health back by figuring out you have lyme ect-

I'm just chasing LMT around the board.
Thanks for giving me something to do on this Fourth.

I am staying in this evening. For two reasons-

1. I do not feel inclined to go sit on a blanket spread out over tick territory to watch fireworks.

2. I'm staying home to protect my home from Dog Frenzy! Last time I stepped out for an evening I came home to find the house trashed, furniture broken, unbelievable mess. I went next door to my neighbor's to call the police since I thought someone had broken in and ransacked the place.

While waiting for the cops to show up she mentioned that someone had been setting off fireworks and maybe the dogs had gotten upset.

So I went back in for a more thorough investigation-and figured she was right because the bathroom was the biggest mess. I don't think a thief would have pulled out every box of kotex and chewed them to bits. Gave me an idea though-don't hide your valuables in the freezer or under the mattress-hide them in TAMPAX !

and finally

3. I'm in a bad mood and don't feel like being social since I have lost my Independence to Lyme Disease.

Poor Poor Pitiful Me,
Carol

I am too old to have any use for T or K..So will send your dog some treats..That's if I haven't thrown all away..

Again Groovy..It is great news..Stay well..

Congrats to getting better.

Carol, firworks can be seen at the end of my block...but my stomach is hurting tonite...its my fav holiday....and i didnt want to risk getting infected with more bacteria etc by insect bites.

I stayed home, am bummed watching TV thinking about past fourth of july's and the fun i did have. I listened to the fireworks...sad

LOL at the dog story....my cat is still hiding.
