073 Lyme Southern Belle- I'm Still UNDEFEATED with Jessica Donaldson

Welcome Ya’ll! I’m Jessica Donaldson, Lyme Southern Belle.

In this episode we talk about: 

 

Losing hope (Orphan) and finding your inner Warrior Trust vs hope The reality of suicide in the Lyme community Push yourself to be better Be an information junkie Whole body wellness Get out of "the pit" It's ok to be sad It's ok to be sick & happy Writing as therapy

 

I'm searching for the words to try to explain my journey fighting Lyme Disease and all that go along with this life-altering diagnosis.

In 2013 I was diagnosed with late stage neurological Lyme disease. The tests showed that I was undiagnosed for over 7 years. The crazy thing is that Lyme can mimic and even cause Lymphoma so all those years I spent treating something that was caused by my Lyme disease, but allowed the root disease to spread and damage my own body over those years.

I’m not one to back down. I beat Lyme Disease once. So, as far as I can tell I have the undefeated record… NOT Lyme Disease.

In the meantime, I want to raise awareness about this disease and what it truly does to someone. I have started working with several Lyme Awareness Non-Profit Organizations. And I cannot wait to see what all we can accomplish TOGETHER to help the suffering in our Lyme Disease, Chronic Pain and Chronic Illness communities.
I hope this blog inspires you to explore new mindsets, healing tools and more than anything…I hope that this is that beacon of light in the distance letting you know that you are not alone, and that it does get better.Feel free to leave a comment or follow me on social media!
