I live in RI and know so many people suffering this terrible burden. I am one of them. Juicing veggies and only drinking water, eating salads and Salmon and fish is the extent of my diet. Many syptoms have subsided, but I am still very ill without much hope for ever living a normal life. I exist. I am isolated. I am tired of trying to be upbeat and positive. I am just too damn tired to want to live at times. I am watching my body wither away. No longer hiking mountains, reduced to a couch sitter

My heart goes out to you. That is my situation (and so many of ours) exactly, same diet and everything. I've been ill since I was a small child and am finding it increasingly difficult without the naive optimism I had at 8 or 14. I feel too weak to have a personality and the isolation feels like one of the worst symptoms. But believe the future holds awareness and awareness will father a cure, or at least subdue alienation and provide clinics and rehabs for us.

We need to expose "The Real Truth" on this disease. People that are covering up and are hindering the eradication of this disease should be criminally prosecuted.

Excellent work! Please keep on doing things like this. If enough of us get the word out, it will be impossible to keep denying chronic Lyme like they do now. Good job!

Thank you so much. I love this...but I'm also crying. It's so sad and awful how poorly we are being treated. And there are doctors that care, but can't afford to take insurance and we can't afford to go doctors without insurance. Because of the ISDA and CDC guidelines. When will people wake-up?!?!

I am sitting here with tears streaming down my face.

I am a Chronic LD patient and I am pretty sure I was born with Lyme. My five year old daughter is literally standing here dancing to the music, even though I can't dance with her.

This video makes me SO PROUD. I cannot tell you how seeing this has lifted my spirits! Thank you so much for taking the time to put this up on YT. God bless you!

wow that is amazing. it felt as if everyone holding those signs were fighting for me. thank you

[Prethenie]

Has anyone considered? that the heavy spraying of Chemtrails, may have contributed to our susceptability to Lyme Disease?

[Prethenie]

Including fruit. I make progress when I follow this diet. No more trying this and that. It all sounds good, but does not feel good. Tired of trying these new wonder tips. Just following the Hipocrates idea of...."Food Is Medicine." To think lemon juice would cause pain??? Vinegar making me want to give up entirely??? Greens, Greens, Greens is where it is at. Be well all. Try the no fruit, no sugar diet...and you will find some relief. No packaged foods either. My Best!

[Prethenie]

Thank you so much, for reaching out with great empathy. I was doing well, until I tried lemon juice every day and it caused pain in all all of my joints, and burning and numbness in my arms and legs. I stopped the juice and it went away. Tweaking what causes reactions. Forget Vinegar, same experience. Of course it made me give up again for a week or so. Not to worry, went back to just the veggies, no sugar, Salmon, some chicken here and there, and the juicing of veggies. "NO SUGAR" of any kind!

I know about what yr going threw. I was bit in 1992, then twice in 1996, and now get to stay home 24-7, becouse I cant do anything without collasping. Google Dar's Toy Story, I wrote it 1 year ago, to let others know what we go threw every day. Been downloaded 6 Mil. times. Its on Lyme-Net too. Dont look back@what ya did, see what ya can still do, it could be worse,like me. Were alone out here,and can,hope anybody will hear us.I eat a bulb of "Raw-Garlic a day.Only thing that helped Texas Dar !
