HAPPY THANKSGIVING to everyone!

Even though we have each had a difficult journey with Lyme disease, there is much to be thankful for.

Let's focus on the good, such as the wonderful people here!

How about we each share one thing we are thankful for this Thanksgiving.

I am thankful for having a good MD who diagnosed me in the early stage of Lyme, treated me and cured me. I,m also thankful for some of the good friends I have made here and having the energy to play with my 5 grandchildren. Happy Thanksgiving every one.

I am thankful for my faith in Jesus Christ without him I would have never been able to go through this. I am thankful for my loving husband who has stood by me and loved me when I can't make dinner or clean the house and my daughter who had a big part of her Mom lost due to this damaging disease. Have A blessed Thanksgiving everyone , be safe.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.
