My Christmas gift to you, is... me! Isn't that special? (winK) It's been too long, I realize... the most exiting news I have to write is that for the last few months, I've been undergoing homeopathic treatment for Lyme from a man who is (supposedly) one of the best. And, wow, it's been quite something. It's actually been the most difficult treatment regimen I've ever been on: http://www.wholisticresearch.com/info/artshow.php3?artid=81 But it's also been the most exiting. My energy has gone from being almost non-existent to being so huge I actually have to remind myself to slow down and take it easy. It's not 100%, and no I'm not walking as of yet, but I'm shocking EVERYONE with my abilities. Abilities like (oh god, I don't know if I should put this in writing but, oh well, here goes) abilities like... cleaning! I'm (unfortunately) very good at it, thanks to my mother. After I asked for a new bike when I was ten, she told me she would only get me one if I paid half for it. When I expressed shock and confusion--what? ;I'm ten years old! Where am I gonna get the money she just shrugged and said, you figure it out. So I went around to the neighbors, and started cleaning. Call me old fashioned, but the young women who help me out don't do it very well, and they say if you want something done right you have to do it yourself, so... I'm doing it! The reason I'm including that in this post is because it exemplifies that I have the ENERGY to do it. I'm still going to ADAPT (formerly known as Project Walk) once a week and am working with the head physical therapist at OHSU twice a week. And I'm of course still writing when I have he energy and spirit for ir; you can't ruse the muse. My book is in no way, shape or form ready for publishing as of yet, but it WILL be published; mark my words. Stay tuned.. I hope you all have enjoyed this early Christmas present Now let's all have the happiest of holidays, and make 2009 the greatest year of our life!
