I'm Tired.


 Lyme Disease Awareness Month 💚 Yet another doctor visit today seeking help. I was basically told that there is no way I could possibly be experiencing the symptoms I have 9 years after my diagnosis. I was told that I should stop researching Lyme and what is happening to my body. I had four vials of blood drawn because she refuses to believe me so she's testing for everything from Lyme (again. 🙄) to Diabetes and Rheumatoid Arthritis. I walked out of there with no answers, no support, and some medications for problems I don't even have. The health system is failing us.

I recently had the very fortunate opportunity to speak with Danielle about her incredible life and how she continues to inspire others with her wisdom and strength. "Being a professional surfer was something I had wanted to do at a very young age. There weren't many women in the water when I began surfing but I always had a lot of love and support from my surf teammates as well as sponsors in the sport.
