Lyme Disease ---Nasty

Hi Friends,
Even the hardy folks U.P. here in Northern Michigan talk about the cold weather.   I got a hair cut this morning for $12, and now I feel MORE cold... lol.
       I am hungry right now, and drove down the 'main drag' of this mall town, and I intend to look up the stats, and town population,  but I could not find one eating place in the downtown area this morning to get some hot soup and lunch ! !   Now,  I don't care for the big cities with their crime, violence and dirt,  but I prefer medium sized towns/ cities, like Kenosha, WI. with a pop. of about 87,000, and they have all sorts of great eating places that equal those in Milwaukee, WI !   And I don't mind paying a higher price if they serve me the best food.   I don't eat out too often,  and I am sick to death of 'fast food' with all the salt and additives,  so I have some pickled Herring in the refrigerator, that I like, but like anything else, some palates are conditioned to eat certain foods, and would turn their nose  up at what I eat, perhaps.  But I am versa- table  and like a multitude of National foods:  Spanish. Mexican, German, Italian, Chinese, Vietnamese,  Croatian, etc.  [Croatia is a country inside the old Yugoslavia near the sea, and they love their roast lamb.. mmmm!].   My Mother's Father came from there on a ship to the USA at the age of 13, alone, without a penny in his pocket, and made good in America !!   He was a very smart man, and I think I got some of my brains from him... PTL.   But he also spoke German.  
       I have a lot of time on my hands lately to think, meditate, read, study or watch movies on TV.   But I really like to visit my friends on line and see what they think about certain subjects.   Most of my friends are Saved Christians who also give me some very good advice on what to do in various circumstances,  but also relying on God, and His Word,  the KJV Bible, of course.
    I got two bills today in the mail from Capital One CC's, now on the 19th of Jan.,  but they want the payment on the 22nd of Jan !!  Duh,  I just mailed them out earlier this morning,  because I was waiting for the bills to come,  but I sent them both checks on my own and just gave then triple  the amount, to pay them down/ off....  but my grip is that the bills came so dang late !   My mail is all messed up since I moved 10 miles away to this small berg called Norway, MI.   but it's a roof over my head.

Warm Regards,
Tom

It's like an end-time plague spreading across America

Revelation 9 speaks of the locusts that come from the bottomless pit who were given power to torment those who do not have the seal of God. Verse 6 says, "And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them." There is a disease that, while it could never measure up to the horrors of these creatures, torments all who are infected with it, believers and nonbelievers, and it is spreading across the United States at a rapid rate. This disease is so insidious that it hides itself from detection and slowly, but surely debilitates its victims using their weakest points against them. It now has spread to half the counties in America.

Lyme disease is caused by the Borrelia bacteria found in ticks. These ticks have spread from the Eastern seaboard across the South and Southwest. According to the Centers for Disease Control the number of counties in the northeastern US that are considered high-risk for Lyme disease has increased by more than 320%. Some 95% of the 300,000 cases a year come from 14 states in the Northeast and upper Midwest. Lyme is now the most commonly reported vector-borne disease in the Northern Hemisphere. If diagnosed early-a rash commonly appears around the site of the tick bite-Lyme can be treated with antibiotics, but longer term infections can produce joint stiffness, brain inflammation, and nerve pain.

But that's not the worst of it. Some people never know they have been bitten by such a tick. Months or years later, depending on how strong their immune system is, they start having symptoms. It could be anything from just not feeling right to strange neurological problems to severe reflux to complete debilitation. World class athletes in the prime of their careers end up in wheelchairs. In the case of my wife Chris, she almost died, wasting away to skin and bones under 100 pounds. I would lay awake at night making sure she was breathing. Doctors think they can treat it with antibiotics, and in some cases that may work if detected early. But much of the time, they just call it a virus or surmise that the person is imagining the symptoms, leaving the disease to progress in their patients for lack of treatment. 

It wasn't until we found a naturalpathic doctor that Chris began to recover. He used natural herbs to kill the bacteria. But even then, it masked itself as something else. It was a long process taking over five years. Things that Chris thought she would never do again, she is able to today thanks to answers to prayer and God's natural provisions to combat this tormenting disease. Chris began each day by reciting Psalm 118:24, "This is the day which the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." She drew on the strength of the Lord and her faith in him just to survive each day. Little by little, she got better. I would wish this on no one. So please be aware and get second opinions if you think you are infected. This is an evil permeating our nation and trying to take abundant life away from many. 
Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!
