In the middle of the night, when most ideas hit me, the title: My Blind Spot Journey” came to mind. Yes. That will be the title! For many reasons!
Number One: It all started with a ‘spot’ on my leg from an embedded deer tick.
Number Two: The more we travel this journey, the more we find how ‘blind’ people are to the ever growing epidemic of lyme disease.
Number Three: The ‘blindness’ of the medical community, the government and the insurance agencies who choose to ‘believe’ that lyme disease can be ‘cured’ with short term antibiotics BECAUSE of guidelines they are forced to follow or otherwise face the possibility of losing their license or insurance companies.
Number Four: People walking around with ‘blinders’ on thinking it won’t happen to me or my family. Think again people! Especially if you live in Wisconsin as I do. Lyme disease is one of the fastest growing epidemics in the nation right now. It is NOT being ‘seen’ clearly.
Number Five: People are ‘blind’ to the possibility of the biowarefare ‘cover up’ on Plum Island where this huge epidemic may have all started.
I am sure there are many other reasons for the title, “My Blind Spot Journey,” but I think it is best not to waste any more time and get on with my story.
I hope my blog will bring some much needed insight to my friends, family and the community who choose to read it- and believe it. Not only will I share with you my personal journey but also, at times, include valuable information we have learned over the past several years due to research my husband, Vince and I have done since Lyme Disease first came into our lives.
