Lyme Relief

  

        In my last personal post I reported how lousy I felt and how discouraging it can be to be haunted from Lyme for years on end. Because it hides from antibodies and antibiotics, you have to KILL all forms of the infection, at the same time, over and over and over and over again. Even then, I won't kill them all. Bummmer.
        However, I do feel better today, my fever lifted for now, my headache is gone, and I have let go of my discouragement once again. I am still tired, even after just waking up. It's not like it used to be, I used to be 80% in bed or on the couch in these deep "Lyme Coma's". I couldn't wake from them. They seldom occur anymore.
        The biggest Lyme relief occurred yesterday. I got home from a quick trip with my mom and daughter, and on my front steps were two beautifully made flower pots in beautiful clay pots. And they weren't tiny, they were large and packed with my favorite flowers. No name, no card, just a surprise left for me. Instantly, my discouragement went away and I was filled with gratitude for people who love me. NEVER underestimate the power of friendship and family. It lifts me out of my funky times, and gives me hope my life is still meaningful. (esp. since I don't talk on the phone much or go out to visit much) No one is fessing up to the deed, so I have to play detective now. Good, that will keep me busy.
        THANK YOU WHOEVER YOU ARE!!!!!!!!!
