I don't talk about my illness much, I have chronic Lyme Disease. I first got sick almost 10 years ago. I'm in remission currently and working hard to stay there.

When I was sick there were weeks on end when I didn't leave the house. More events and celebrations cancelled than I can ever remember.

I spent most of my time sleeping, or watching netflix. I was too sick to read a book and some days too weary to shower. Groceries were delivered and dinners slapped together. I remember thinking how very many hours there were in the day. I wished so much to feel well and be able to fill those days with things I loved. Guess what?

My wish came true. I am feeling stronger than ever. My family is healthy. And I have all the time in the world to enjoy my health and home.

Stay home friends. Do what you can to make this experience full. Take care of something - a human, an animal, a plant. Nourish yourself.

Most of all - stay present.
