I didn’t post yesterday, but yet so much has happened. Yesterday, I started my Heavy Metals Testing and Treatment. This is supposed to onset 48 hours of flu like symptoms… but I have not felt sick like that, only severely fatigued and weak. I also tested to see how I would handle high dose Vitamin C which I am supposed to begin this next week.
Cory’s initial test results came in and we have confirmation that he too has Chronic Lyme Disease. He will begin intensive treatment Monday and will be at the doctor every day like me. We knew that Lyme could be sexually transmitted and transmitted in utero as well. We were very aware that it was quite possible that Cory and all three kiddos have Lyme and co-infections… but that was a hard afternoon for me having finality that indeed I had given this to my best friend and kiddos. Thank God we are on the road to healing… it honestly cannot get here quickly enough and yet we have so much pre-Germany treatment to accomplish before we go too!
As soon as I got in the car to head home from the Doctors office, our local news station called me and asked if they could come out to our home and interview our family. As much as I don’t like being in front of a video camera… this is exciting and we pray that it sheds light on this awful disease, opens physicians eyes as well as the general public that Lyme IS on the West Coast, it is here in Bend, and it can be anywhere! We filmed yesterday evening and the story will air tonight, Friday July 15th at both 10pm and 11pm on Z21. You can also find it after it airs on their website: http://www.ktvz.com (Have grace on me… I was so very nervous!)
And then………. the celebrating began! Cory and I celebrated our 14th wedding anniversary yesterday! I was so thankful that I didn’t feel flu-ish so we could go out to dinner while my parents watched the kiddos! Cory and I will never forget this zany, crazy day celebrating us
Today has been a day off of me being at doctors, and I welcomed that! I took the kiddos to the dentist and then we went and spent some of the afternoon with their great aunts and great grandma. We came home in time to finish off the day with a good swim and soaked up the last of the day’s sunshine!
Soooooo many people have reached out and let us know they are praying alongside us, you have shared our story, and many have helped financially. All we can say is THANK YOU! We need the help and you are each such a blessing! Please help us share our fundraising page… Germany is around the corner!
Sincerely, Dani
Hi, you don’t know me but I just saw your story on FB and am reading your blog for the first time. I wanted to share some information with you regarding any chronic illness. You need to read the book The Medical Medium – Secrets behind chronic and mystery illness and how to finally heal. I am a Christian and was hesitant to look into a medium…but he doesn’t tell you your future, he says he has a gift to hear the spirit of God who tells him how to help heal people through God’s creation. These things include fruits, vegetables, herbs and supplements/vitamins. I read his story through a Christian lense and took it with a grain of salt, but the information in the book is fascinating and makes sense. If you’re like me with your health, you’ll try anything! I would highly recommend the book, which is on Amazon and you can even make an appointment to speak with him. I spoke with him last summer and am doing what he said to do and what the book says to do to kill my Epstein Barr Virus which is more damaging than anyone thinks! Doctors too thought I had lyme disease but I don’t, it’s Epstein Barr Virus which I’ve had since I was a kid. Anyway, just something else to look into before spending so much money to go to Germany. You might even be able to get a phone appointment with him before you go. Good luck on your healing journey and I will keep you and your family in my prayers!
