Kaya mo yan! That's Tagalog for "you can do it." And it's true.

Stay strong, guys. Stay hopeful. Don't stop looking for the answers, don't settle for anything less than the best health your life can afford you, and don't give up.

It's tough, some days. Some of you have had it much harder than I have. My heart sings for your woes. But, still, I know the hurt, I know the feeling of being trapped. Suffocating.

Fight through it. That's all you gotta do. Difficult as it may be, out of ideas, it's a live or die, thing. Cliche and all that.

All this coming from someone who's often a very weak soul. I keep picking myself up, though. Screw getting sicker, right? I'm not dying either.

I'm gonna die young, I think, relatively (I'm 25 now). I've always felt this way. I don't know why. I guess I've heard of others saying things like "I never thought I'd get old," but oh well.

Anyway, my point is, I'm gonna die young, I've got dreams to have yet.

But... yeah, I just came to say, stay fierce... stay positive.

I'll come share some pics from my Colorado trip later on.

I'm going to die fighting with every thread in my soul. It is just my nature to be a fighter.

I'm not afraid of dying and I actually believe that Heaven is better than here. But, my instinct is to fight to survive.

I will not give up EVER!

It is in my soul to fight to breath each and every day and to see the wonders of the world. It may be just a Robin hopping across my yard, or an eagle swooping down to get that fish out of the lake. I will fight to take every last drop of it in.

I was just thinking the same thing. If lyme is going to take me down, maybe not "death" but lifetime of misery, I will give it hell every step of the way.

I like this thread very much. I've had some low days. I'm sure a decade of stress from an abusive marriage followed by the stress of family court has not helped my recovery. I'm impatient, and it's only been a few months, but I've had glimpses to remind me of what it felt like to be healthy. I've also had some very bad days.

Right now I often feel like I'm on auto-pilot doing what needs to be done to get myself and the kids through the day. This post has reminded me how important it is to focus on the positive too. I think I need to set some long-ranging happy goals.
