The world's largest Lyme Disease Awareness Protest is going to happen on May 10 & 11th, 2013. There will be about 30 countries protesting the atrocities of Lyme Disease all on the same two days. Please support your country or state in their efforts. This was a grassroots effort that began back in November when a couple different countries decided instead of just having their own protests for their country, that the whole Lyme community should unite globally. Sweden, Denmark, Norway and soon many other countries all started planning a worldwide protest and just a few short months later over 30 countries were involved.
Even is you are too sick to attend a physical event you can still help by:
*Contacting media/news and getting the word out there. Post fliers locally.
*Signing petitions http://worldwidelymediseaseprotestus.blogspot.com/p/active-petitions.html
* Letter writing campaigns http://worldwidelymediseaseprotestus.blogspot.com/p/letter-writing-campaign.html
* Tweet all May for Lyme Awareness
* Hang up lime green ribbons
* Turn your porch light green for May

hello lisa-
ReplyDeletemy name is sandy knutson. i live in west allis, wi and i have been diagnosed with lyme disease. it has been 3 yrs now. i am in a wheelchair due to the lyme-the right side of my face is numb (like i went to the dentist and was numbed up and it hasn't woken up yet), my rt eye is blurry (like looking thru fuzz), my legs don't work right, i have a tendency to fall over backward for no apparent reason, my abdomen breaks out horribly on about a 3 week cycle. it has been a hellish ordeal with no apparent hope for recovery as i am allergic to the med's. i am writing this just to let you know that i exist in the world of "it's all in your head" words from the dr's. if you would like to contact me i can be reached at: pippik63@gmail.com or at 262-853-2279. thank you for your help and support in getting the word out.
