Praying for Lymies's Purpose: Creating biographies for each Lyme friend to help us get to know each other better. To let everyone know that they are not alone. Also to leave each Lyme friend know that we are praying and thinking about them.

Email address so I can contact you
I write a biography based on your responses. Then we'll contact each other several times until the biography is "just right." Then I'll choose a date for your biography to be posted.
If you prefer, you can write it entirely on your own - but I will proofread it to make sure that it reads well and get your approval before posting.

I want to send all my love and prayers to all my Lyme warriors. The best way I know how is to write. I write a biography about each patient so people who come to pray will know exactly how to lift you up to God.
You will receive a questionnaire so please return it quickly so I can prepare for writing your biography. Once I finish writing your biography, I will send it to you for approval before publishing it.
Want to be a Featured Lymie and your name is not above? Leave me a comment and ask to be Featured.
If I receive two questionnaires back at the same time, I will choose the one to go first that asked originally that asked me first. The quicker your information gets back to me, the quicker you can be featured for prayers.
Dear Lord, I ask that you comfort Polly and bring her strength and healing. I also pray for her son who has Lyme and for all her other children, as well. I pray she has the strength to care for her children this summer and always.
He Reigns by Newsboys It’s the song of the redeemed Rising from the African plain It’s the song of the forgiven Drowning out the Amazon rain The song of Asian believers Filled with God’s holy fire It’s every tribe, every tongue, every nation A love song born of a grateful choir
It’s all God’s children singing Glory, glory, hallelujah He reigns, He reigns It’s all God’s children singing Glory, glory, hallelujah He reigns, He reigns
Let it rise about the four winds Caught up in the heavenly sound Let praises echo from the towers of cathedrals To the faithful gathered underground Of all the songs sung from the dawn of creation Some were meant to persist Of all the bells rung from a thousand steeples None rings truer than this
And all the powers of darkness Tremble at what they’ve just heard ‘Cause all the powers of darkness Can’t drown out a single word
When all God’s children sing out Glory, glory, hallelujah He reigns, He reigns All God’s people singing Glory, glory, hallelujah He reigns, He reigns
Polly, a 38 year old Lyme patient, is from Tennessee. Polly thinks she's had Lyme Disease for many years, but her body crashed about one year ago. She was finally diagnosed with Lyme in November of 2008.
Polly's symptoms are endless, but some of the things that bother her the most are fatigue, headaches, brain fog, and brain sensitivity. She also has pain in her stomach, chest, jaw/neck and joints. She has bad autonomic dysfunction that is slowly improving.
Polly would like prayers for increased stamina. Summer is creeping up on us and she will be blessed with 5 children at home.
Polly presently takes a lot of medications to stabilize her body and brain. She currently has a PICC line and is on IV and oral antibiotics. Her treatment protocol also includes lots of nutritional supplements. One of Polly's sons also has Lyme Disease. She has concerns about several of the others. Please pray for her to have wisdom regarding their testing and treatment.
I am living my life. I've treated Lyme, Bartonella, Candida and Heavy Metal Poisoning. My symptoms were drastically improved after 2 years of treatment. I did well for a year or two and then started having a backslide in August of 2011. I've been seeing my doctor since March 1 2007.
I have severe D defiency, but my Iron levels are now normal (after Iron infusions). I'm treating with oral antibiotics currently for Lyme, Bartonella and Babesia. I'm living life as full as I can with the skills that I have and the love I receive.
My recent labs showed a very weak immune system and low Cortisol. So we're fighting to bring that back up. Some therapies I'm using are IV Vitamin C, HBOT treatments and herbal remedies plus yeast fighting medicines along with medicines to boost cortisol levels.
I've not used the HBOT in a while, but I found it helpful. I'm on a load of oral antibiotics again because the herbal remedies alone were not effective enough.
Living life as full as I can with the skills that I have and the love I receive!
