There is a software you can downloaded for free that will do this for you....
I used it for the British female doctor's website (who treats CFS and puts all of her information on her site) when they were going to take her license away... works great if you have the HD space.
it's called HTTrack Website copier.....

- Thanks, fourwinds. Such a speedy reply!
I'm not computer savvy enough to download anything and my ancient little notebook has hardly any storage space left but I hope someone can give that a try and report back.
I suppose it should be okay to post the blog (?), it is a public blog after all, and the blogger writes for us to read it. It has some very good entries.

Do you have administrative access to the blog? If yes there should be some sort of export option in blogspot. There are in WordPress. If you don't have access, that's probably another story and you could try the approach that fourwinds suggests.

I am saving it via the software right now and will confirm if/when it's successful.
I will then transfer it to my external hard drive for keeping... At least someone will have it.
I am familiar with this doctor, is there a concern he may stop publishing???

- fourwinds,
Thanks.
As there is a public petition at Change.org to help support him and he's asked for that, apparently, it comes down to an IDSA ID doctor questioning extended treatment of, or even the diagnosis of, chronic lyme.
That's about the extent of the detail available right now. I hope he does not stop his blog but, at least for now, that may need to be on hold and it could disappear at any time (as has happened with even single articles and some doctors' websites).
You can read a bit about this here, and see the Change.org petition link:

Many thanks, four winds. The people at lymenet have such varied backgrounds and talents that you can often find whoever you need!
We don't know if the blog would disappear, temporarily or permanently, this is just taking precautions.

@poppy, we'll see if it works... right now it's been mirroring the site for over 2 hours... I'll just let it keep going.
(at least this makes me feel useful... "back in the day" when my brain was totally functioning, I was an infrastructure analyst and also did computer tech support. Sigh... now I can't remember why I left the room somtimes!
@ Keebler, thanks for the link -- I didn't know this. I am appalled they keep going after these doctors!

Actually, the dr. in question hasn's asked for any help, yet (though I am NOT saying he doesn't need it!!) Right now he is trying to do what he does, be a doctor, and do what is being asked of him.
Don't know if it matters one way or another.
Dr. now knows there are folks out there with more knowledge, information and documentation to help him with whatever may come his way.
If necessary, he won't have to re-invent the wheel because of the wonderful and vast supportive community of Lyme advocates, patients and doctors who offer advice and assistance. To
those who have already contacted him personally to lend support, he is truly grateful.
The current movement, if you will, is motivated by some wonderful people around him who have jumped in to help however they thought they should and could.
I actually have no idea about what is happening regarding any petition or anything. I am fairly certain neither does the dr. I only know of who
may be working on it and therefore feel confident in stating: Great people, great intentions.
I keep hearing that somewhere out there in computerland there is reference to some insurance company being involved. Please let me be clear. THIS IS NOT AND HAS NEVER BEEN THE CASE.
If anyone see's talk (type) of such, please inform any and all that that information is mistaken.
Thank you. Thinking of all who have and continue to suffer from TBI.
