Why wear a ribbon?

 
"I wear this ribbon to support all veterans everywere! I thank you for our freedo..." (Hollied246)

MDJunction to me

Bettyg"MDJ means a place for others with my type of illness to hang out; chronic lyme and/or co-infections/other diseases the ticks carry. 
We get NEEDED SUPPORT from those walking in our shoes, and share in EDUCATING one another. 
We are blessed to have over 700 boards in ONE location! A WIN-WIN.

Understanding and reading lab results is very hard for me. I thought it would help if we knew what normal was.
