Please join us for a Lyme-free celebration, an opportunity to get to know each other for the strong, courageous people we are – no discussions of protocols, symptoms, or treatments! We have several activities planned, so come in your PJ’s, your fancy attire or just as you are! Caregivers, friends, and family are also welcome.
Please bring your favorite beverage to join in a toast to our incredible resilience and tenacity. If you have one, please bring a candle (real or electric) to help lift us all out of the darkness and back into the light.
We’d also like to have a casual conversation about what brings you joy and something you’ve recently done that made you feel proud. Participation is, of course, voluntary. This event will not be recorded as it’s an opportunity for us to socialize.
We will be available to admit people on Zoom as of 12:45 pm. Please arrive no later than 1:05 pm so you don’t miss out on everything we’ve planned!
We can’t wait to see all of you!
Hosted by:
Linda Reeves and Bobbie Schaeffer
We’ve attended many support group meetings and heard so many tragic stories, but we also believe it’s so important that we acknowledge we are far more than just a disease. That is why we wanted to organize this event. We hope you will join us for a friendly, casual conversation to get to know and celebrate each other.
