TRISH PROJECT PHASE ONE JOIN IN AND HELP THOSE SUFFERING WITH LYME DISEASE RAISE AWARENESS PLZ!
Ok my dear lymmies. Instead of waiting for bills to pass. Lets, in the meantime bring awareness to this disease in a very BIG way! If we all grab some lime (lyme) green ribbon and tie it around as many trees as we have. Ask our friends to do the same. Soon enough no matter where you go people are going to be asking. "whats goin on with all the lyme green ribbons in EVERY neighborhood in EVERY state?
I am going to also post a sign in my front yard saying something to the effect that LYME IS HERE WHERE IS OUR CURE!! I encourage you to join me. It's visual, it's immediate and it's going to generate questions to which we all have information to share.
I hope with all my heart everyone who reads this will spread the word and cover this country with lyme green ribbon.
I made a promise to an Aunt who suffered for years, that I would do all I can to help find a cure for this horrible disease. This is one idea. Please join me and lets paint this country GREEN and show them what we are made of!!!!

Blessings,
TRISH

Yeah, Its not for everyone.  I don't get out much either.  I can't work, I have a fifteen year old and very active 6 year old.  That is a full time job.  I try to sleep while they are in school then I have to cook and clean.  And there are days where I really need a maid and a cook.  But I have to do it, I have no help and it really ***** when you are walking in a fog, and exhausted.  

But I love being a mom and that just goes with it.  I have to get my little one out to the park and bring her to gymnastics.  I get by with a little help from my friends for rides to get out.  I am able to sometimes take walks that are a few blocks away some days.  I have two parks verry close to my appartment.  

But anyway I made a poster for May and got a local store to put it up, and I just get online and post things where and when I can.  I only have to sit to do this and it is in my free time.  Sometimes I go throught the day very tired just to get things like this done.  I went on a local online communtiy and messaged someone who works for Events in my city.

I posted the trish project there. and Lyme walks to get in our community.  I am to sick to do something like this but I would love to help as someone else could coordinate it.  I have just asked friends to please make a poster or put up a lyme ribbion at the end of there Street which connects to a main Street or is on one.   I also bought some lyme ribbions and put one at the end of my Street on the cornor of the main Street.  And when I went to a park I left one there.

I've read about the ribbons project.

Personally, I'm a semi-closeted Lyme case.  (I'm not necessarily proud of that fact, just stating a truth.)  Since May was Lyme disease awareness month, I did make some efforts, including posting info on FaceBook (for my "real-life" healthy friends to see), and I participated in a 5 K fund raising event.

I still work (sort of, part time) and am not comfortable being a highly vocal Lyme activist at this time.  I hope someday to be able to do more.

Are you talking about the video on here or the video Object of My Infection Tara made for her book.  I have been reading the book and she did a great job on it.  She included everything about lyme in it.  She even has information on testing. My story is in it too.
