Lyme Disease Awareness Month

Many people have asked me how they can help raise awareness for Lyme disease. Well, May just so happens to be Lyme Disease Awareness Month! If you're looking for a simple, yet profound way to help, click on any of the Lyme blogs I have linked on the right and leave an encouraging comment to my Lyme sisters and brothers, as you will quickly see that most are struggling to keep their head above water.

Chronic Lyme disease is a very painful disease; so painful, in fact, that the number one cause of death from Lyme disease is suicide! Lyme is a tough battle, and your kind words can help someone more than you could ever imagine!

There are many other ways you can help: you can spread the word by sharing my blog, you could make a donation to my fundraising page for Lyme research or to Columbia University's Lyme and Tick- Borne Diseases Research Center, or you could even join in the fun by turning your Facebook or Myspace profile lime green for the month of May.

Thanks for all of your love and support!
