Happy Mother’s Day

Where to even begin…..

I know you can’t see me but tears are running down my face as I think about you.  The following quote comes to mind:

“You is kind. You is smart. You is important.”  ― Kathryn Stockett, The Help

Although this was said from a maid to a little girl, we never outgrow the need for affirmation and this is most certainly true if you are a woman chronically infected with tick-borne illness, have a child with tick-borne illness or you are one in the growing army of women who while being infected yourself, care for an infected menagerie at home.

You truly have an important job to do.
I salute you moms.  We would crumple without you.
