For the details of my personal story and struggle to recover my own health, see My Story.

I'm a patient with Lyme disease sharing what I have learned over the past many years. I am not a medical practitioner and hold no medical license. All comments are simply based on my experience or are opinion only. Consult your medical doctor for all medical decisions.

I have had the honor and pleasure of writing numerous articles for the Public Health Alert. Writing for the PHA has given me the opportunity to interview some of the world's top doctors and to learn about their approaches to treating chronic illnesses. I've also written for Townsend Letter and Explore! - both of these are excellent publications which I have learned a tremendous amount from.

I look forward to continued learning. In fact, I thirst for it...
