People, “Chemtrails,” are killing the biological nutrients, supporting all plant life. What do you think that is doing to our immune systems, and that of bees? I have saved a sample of snow, from a storm in late December, that left my hair sticky and gluey feeling. I showered if out immediately. Does anyone know where I can get it tested? In need of one who is trustworthy.

I read a book years ago, called “Sugar Blues” by William Dufty. An absolute read. He states that during the Bubonic Plague, the rich who could afford sugars, were dropping like flies, the poor country folk who could not, faired well.

“melikerns” idea to openeyepictures
The movie has brought much needed awareness, however, why don’t you post a list of petitions,a list of political representatives that we can contact. Put the links on your page; this will make it easier for those who barely have the energy to move. Please

Google…..”Low Dose Naltrexone Homepage.” And also here on You tube…”Controlling Lyme Disease,” and see the LDN videos by “TropicalDawg” here as well. I have been using LDN, for just over a week now, and feel the need to pass the buzz. This is a drug that helps with the immune system, inflammation and endorphins. Eat as if you had a yeast problem, because Lyme loves what yeast loves. And no sugars of any kind…”Including Fruit!”

It is an evil disease & my love I send to you I also have neuroLyme & am a singer songwriter on YT Lizzie Lane.
I do dedicate my song “Darling” to all who are fighting this hellish infection.
Ceftriaxone IV is the best drug.. you will also need the BBB tests for all associated infections such as babesia & a drug cocktail potent enough to kill all. Also needed are cyst buster drugs, (tinidazole) because borrelia can hide from the immune sys. I am so sorry your dad left. love Lizzie xxxx

There is no cure..
Yes.. its the worse disease in the world..
Mainly because most Drs ignore it. They just dont want to get involved. Thats how people end up with late stage lyme.. wonderful medical system eh?

My question is — why did they need to go on a private jet as opposed to a regular flight.

“PLEASE DON’T FEED THE TICKS”: I was a long distance hiker but contracted Lyme disease. ER doc diagnosed 2002 (tick bite/EM rash). Positive serology. ER doc confirmed diagnosis 2007. Wikipedia Lyme page emphasizes ‘no chronic Lyme’ yet describes disseminated Borrelia/late stage Lyme (?!).
See my personal profile here for more about IDSA conflict of interest, etc.

A man being a real father! Its as rare as an accurate Lyme diagnosis! I’m a school counselor in a Lyme endemic region and the majority of parents are going along with the illiterate docs and allowing their kids to be permanently disabled (mentally and physically) because they choose not to learn more about Lyme and/or pay out of pocket for proper treatment (even though they can). Kudos to this man!

Please see my favorites and the Dennis Kucinich video where he tells Hilary, Obama, et. al, how he was the only one with a specific universal healthcare plan, and that they will only perpetuate an evil system.

Doxy crosses the blood brain barrier. Leading Lyme researcher, Sam Donta,(and who appears to be pro-antibiotic) said he isn’t certain Lyme spirochette *ever* crosses the BBB. So why so severe an antibiotic as doxy when amoxicillin is sufficient enough to kill the spirochette (but doesn’t cross the BBB nearly as much as doxy)? MS is described as a disease of the BBB. Connection to antibiotics causing these auto-immune diseases since they’re in experimental stage with sending them across BBB?

Usually use the comment option to offer a Lyme brochure but this video touched me. I had multiple symptoms & Dr. J gave me my life back. If anyone comes up with a cure for Lyme disease, I feel confident that my Lyme specialist will be in this group. If Jay(patient’s dad) is not satisfied with the Dr. in CA., hope he will inquire with me about Dr. J. Although there are several great Lyme specialists in the U.S.,Dr. J. in my opinion seems to have an exceptional treatment plan.

Im so proud of that father for standing up and doing what he knows is right. And also for making sure the media reported this.
The Drs are the same in the states here except for a few Lyme Drs. I cant wait till they all get this too!
