This is my sister, she is also diabled from Chronic Lyme disease. She also saved my life, when she had reminded me, of the bullseye rash.

Her and I, are working so good, together. Minnesota Lymefighter's Advocacy is our great passion. We will continue to help anyone who is struggling for answers, we are there to listen and we will never stop helping.

I am proud of all we have done. We wrote the proclamation on May to be Lyme Disease Awareness Month. It was signed and passed by our Governer and Secretary of State.

We were honored to be interviewed for the documentary, "Under Our Skin".

We will be speaking in front of 10,000 soldiers, of the National Guard this spring.

We have the faith, that things will change, for the better. We will fight for that.

We will be the voices, to all who have lost their life to Lyme disease.

Our mission will always be: To find patients proper care in each state. We educate awareness, and demand to be heard.

OUR FOCUS IS ON OUR PATIENTS, NOT THE POLITICS.

We believe fate has given this disease, to two loud mouthed sister's. Fate has also given this disease to my Father, a month ago.

We all must collaberat, no state will ever seperate us that are battling Lyme disease. We are one, and we need to fight it together.

We will remain an Independent Advocacy, for we have also learned of some politics within some other advocacy groups. We would like to keep out of a fight that is not ours to fight.

Our patient's come first.

I think what you guys have done/are doing is GREAT! I'm a loud mouth, too. Once I get my head wrapped around all this stuff I'll be louder.

Thanks for what you are doing!
