My dance with Lyme disease?...It's quite a saga.
It spans a good 15 years and at least 8 different cases of Lyme,
and a great deal of that time was spent
sick, in pain, unable to think.
But at the age of 60 here in 2011,
BEYOND 10 symptom-free years,
I'm not only NOT sick and in pain from Lyme,
I'm in better shape and have more strength and energy
than I did in my 30's and 40's.
There IS life after Lyme and I'm living, dancing proof of it.
I wasn't easy. It isn't simple.
If we had a 'silver bullet' it wouldn't be an issue.
But it is an issue and a huge one.
It's under-diagnosed in some places, over-diagnosed in others.
It's under-treated, over-treated, misunderstood.
(some of you are nodding already)
Mostly, this is MY story-
but it is the story of an herbalist finding her way through
what could have been a devastating illness.
For all those years it WAS devastating,
but my point is, I'm OVER it.
I beat it.
What I learned about healing, about myself, it's all just astonishing. The first time it was suggested that I look for the GIFT in the illness I was FLOORED. You've GOT to be kidding.
But hindsight being 20/20 with clean lenses,
I totally agree now.
So this whole story is my GivingBack,
since it most certainly DID contain gifts.
MY tale begins here
first case
I don't profess to be an expert other than having HAD it
at least 8 different times (yes, eight positive tests).....
and having feedback from hundreds of folks over these years
but I have RECOVERED -- completely
