HEAL

For decades I was sick with chronic illness, diagnosed eventually as Lyme Disease after years of doctors shrugging off my failing health. I tried everything to heal, changing my diet, going through intense treatment for seven years with a doctor in another state. I just got worse. And one day my life changed because my body put on the brakes, and I ended up mostly paralyzed, barely breathing. I was diagnosed with an auto-immune disease called Guillaine-Barre, which attacked my nerves, causing searing pain and progressive paralysis. I couldn’t move, couldn’t make facial expressions. All I could do was face the fact that my body was refusing for me to continue on the way I had.
