As I mentioned, a few weeks ago Patrick Nolan, from FOX4 came to interview me about my journey, my treatment and my amazing recovery.
I just found out that it will be airing next Thursday (April 26th) at 10pm! So for everyone who is local in the Cape Coral/Ft.Myers/Naples area- please tune in and watch it! I hope it will raise a lot of awareness!I believe they have a 'live feed' on their website as well-

I will definitely post a link to it here as soon as I have one!
Yesterday was a big day here in the Stevens’ household...
On April 17th, 21 years ago, my life changed dramatically—Katherine was born and I became a big sister! Though I have no actual recollection of that day, it was—hands down—one of the best days of my life.
Don't I just look SO happy?! :) From the minute Katherine entered the world she has been a strong force in my life. Even though we annoyed each other and fought (a lot!), I know God knew just the type of sister I would need to help me through the hard times ahead….I never would have made it through the past few years without her humor and constant smile!
I feel extremely blessed to get to celebrate her special day and have her first 'legal' drink alongside her! Today and every day, I am so proud to call her my “little” sister.
HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY KATHERINE!!
God bless!
Jessica

Hi Jessica,
ReplyDeleteI'm reading parts of your story as I sit in a dark clinic room in Reno, NV watching my son Grayson being drugged again to try and stop convulsing due to Lyme. We are at the Sierra Integrative Medical Center getting treatment. He is 19 yrs. old and been sick since he was 12. Like you, he has a very complicated history, too much to describe here, but due to 7 years of unrelenting pain, he will be having ketamine treatments starting May 2. His will be sedated heavily( non comatose) for 12-14 hours a day for 10 days to try and get relief from pain and hopefully settle the Dystonia like convulsing. Your story gives this mom new hope abd I wanted you to know that. So far there has always been another door that has opened for Grayson just when we think we have exhausted all. Thank your mom for the blogs she kept. You never know who you might help.
We were in Reno 7 months last year and so far 2 thus year. We live in Memphis, TN. I pray for your continued healing. God bless you and your family. I do know the Lyme struggle.
Sincerely,
Kay McClure

Hi Katherine!

Your presence in Mexico with Jessica gave her great strength and support during some of the most difficult days of her recovery. You are beautiful inside and out!
Happy, Healthy and Safe 21'st!

If asked about former employers or colleagues, do not destroy your status by criticising them. Sales Worker Supervisors While one chapter contains a comprehensive list of "unreal" jobs, the most exciting new area is information, Zelinski says. Understood the potential of the players and designed the appropriate diet for them Do not admit directly your weakness as this might jeopardize your chances. Instead, pacify the interviewer by demonstrating that you are aware of this weakness and you are trying to ameliorate yourself from it. The safest way to answer this it to simply cite a flaw rather than a weakness.
