How are the lizard kids doing? Do they get birthday cake too?

I have 2 ferrets, Coco and Snuggles. But they're not like some who are mean. They are cute and love to cuddle! I also have a pug named Toby, and a red canary named Rocky.

Soo...its your birthday today!!! yay!! Birthdays are always great.

I'm soooo sorry that you're sick with lyme. I hope today is a good one for you.

I have lyme disease too, but not as bad as my brother has it. I get headaches, dizzy and joints pains a lot.

But no time to frown or fret because I have some funny (and interesting) pictures for you!!!

but first i must say one thing....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

now...observe...

This is how I feel on a really bad lyme day

This is what I want to do to lyme...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

How did you like Julie's photos? Pretty funny but just a bit disturbing on that last one, eh? (And she always seemed like such a nice girl!!)

BTW, we met Gracie! at Dr. J's the other day and she is the sweetest little creature. She was nestled in her coconut shell and having some peaceful zzzzs.

We want to celebrate your birthday in a special way because you are such a special kid and a real trooper.

So, we are making a contribution to the Dr. Jones Pediatric Lyme Disease Fund in your honor.

Happy 14th Birthday, Ryan!!!!

All the Best,

andie, JC & Julie

This is Ryan. Thanks everyone for the Birthday cards, they are OK with me!

Thanks Pea Soup Lady..it looked like grewl but tasted great.

Thanks Andie, Julie, and JC for donating to Doctor J's pediatric fund!! That makes me feel good.

Funny photos!

Gracie is doing well.
The girls baby her too much. Doctor J's secretly in love with her

Sorry you guys are sick, don't give up.

Thanks again! Bye. Here's a pic for you.

Lyme Disease: don't let this happen to you

Thanks so much for all of these wishes. This means allot to us.

Ryan really enjoyed reading them this time around!!

Great Lyme visual art depiction, Julie!
(though, the psycho Kitty is just a tad disturbing )

You guys have quite a collection of critters there..Ryan has two new crested gecko eggs(different than Gracie, she's a leopard)
hatching in a couple of weeks.

He has some other reptiles, and maybe we'll scan some of their mugshots

I'm touched by all these messages, and also
by Andie, JC and Julie making a donation to the Pediatric Lyme Fund in Ryan's name.

What an incredible, thoughtful gift!! I know it has touched my son deeply. Thank you so much.

We're here pulling for you all as we know ot's a bumpy ride.

Ryan and I were doubled over laughing when we found this monkey face..he was thinking of some really funny phrases to put with it having to do with Lyme. A couple were inside jokes on his crashes, with that face saying "Aaaw, nuts..it happened again!"
We both have stomach aches!

Thanks again, everybody.

Something great that's come out of all this is who we meet along the journey.

Here's another really belated happy birthday wish!

Couldn't hook up my dogteam fast enough to get through the snowstorm to the library so that I could email you.

Wow, that really big whopper aside, hope your birthday was the best this year and I'm praying for a great year to come for you!

Course, if I was back in Alaska the dogteam thing might be true but down here in Alabama my 'dogteam' consists of one huge (115 lb) black lab named Rocky. All he does is knock me off my feet every now and then and eat me out of house and home. LOL!!

Sorry I'm late!

Just one more note that you are very loved by us all
