I was cruising through life in the fast lane – coasting downhill before I got hit with Lyme disease. Negotiating happily through life, taking my health for granted every day. Until one minute I found myself staring at the “seam” of a jack-knifed truck on the side of the mountain – Lyme disease.
Let me digress and tell you about the jack knifed semitruck…..
Decades ago, I was on a caravan road trip with two girlfriends in three cars from Missouri to Atlanta, Georgia. For those of you who have never travelled through central and eastern Tennessee, highway 24 traverses the infamous Mt. Eagle Pass. Straight through the Smoky Mountain National Forest and over Mt. Eagle – what goes up, must come down. Not as severe as some of the highways through the Rockies, but the down slope has its share of truck runaway ramps and severe grades.
I was not a rookie on this highway, but was young enough to be green behind the ears on mountain travel, especially with concern for truck drivers on the down grade. At the time of the incident, I was leading the brigade down the eastern slope of Mt. Eagle Pass. Being cocky and young, I was travelling in the “fast” lane – on the far left side of the highway.
Directly in front of me, an impatient truck driver signaled over around one of his slower compatriots. I braked to let him in against my will. As I was cursing his insistence and bad driving skills and not keeping enough of my distance, his left wheels caught off the shoulder. Since he was running downhill too fast to begin with and made a hasty movement around the other truck, the slight tire “slippage” caused the following reaction to occur.
An overcorrection to the right or the left or a ying or a yang, I’m not sure, but in a matter of seconds that seemed like an eternity, I was travelling down the mountain at 70 mph and staring at the seam of a jackknifed truck a mere 50 ft in front of me.
Since I’m here today to write this email, you know I survived. In a miraculous Mario Andretti driving skills move, that truck driver went from being cursed, to being blessed for correcting, righting his way and saving all our lives.
I stared death in the eyes and have lived to tell the tale. How many of you have made eye contact with the “jack-knifed truck” in your life?
I laid in bed many a night not expecting to awake the next morning during my Lyme valley. Certain at one point that it was taking my life, I wrote goodbye letters to my husband and kids. I resigned my life to being over and reluctantly accepted my fate.
My uplifting journey describes the emotional, mental, and spiritual healing that occurred during my Lyme healing. The story is evidence of the courage and perseverance necessary to win this race.
As a 41 year old mother of 2, I discovered I had Lyme disease and various co-infections 2 ½ years ago when I crashed against a wall hard. Well below 85 pounds and fading fast, God sent me a lifeline by discovering Lyme disease and doctors who could help me heal. I quickly figured out that the reason both my kids had struggles with health issues since birth was that I had passed all this junk to them in the womb.
Which also means, I had the silent decay of Lyme disease raging in my body unbeknownst to me for over a decade, maybe longer. How many of you have fought this beast for decades?
I had “heard” of Lyme disease, just like I had heard of West Nile Virus, but had never really “heard” of Lyme disease. Certainly, not anyone who was dying of Lyme disease or was chronically sick. I thought at first diagnosis, great, one round of antibiotics and my life is back. Right? Wrong. Dead wrong.
This is a beast, a terrible monstrosity, an incredibly high mountain to navigate – this healing from Lyme disease. And the battle is not just against the physical body. The benefits of complete healing have to work in tandem.
Let’s face it – this battle is scary and travels through uncharted territory, right? If you are not willing to lay it all down and heal completely then this book is not for you. Letting go mentally and healing emotionally is part of the battle, it is necessary to move the physical body forward and back to normal life. Don’t you want complete body, mind and soul healing also?
Take it from me. Watch and hear me go through the skirmish and come out the other side. Take comfort, it can be accomplished – the contest can be secured.
Don’t you want to have a clear mind again? Wouldn’t you give anything to get the weight of this disease off your heart and soul? What does peace of mind and normal look like for you?
You can be normal again – you can get your life back. You can beat this thing – you can do more than survive it, you can thrive.
