May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month and Mental Health Awareness month. These matters are inextricably linked because there is now a mental health crisis among those with tick-borne diseases. As Dr. Robert C. Bransfield writes, “Lyme and other tick-borne diseases contributes to causing a significant number of previously unexplained suicides and is associated with immune-mediated and metabolic changes resulting in psychiatric and other symptoms.”

Dear RM Agents and Readers,

Do nothing Congress, what they will be noted for in history, border wall that has a door that is always open, sounds like hell to me. Do nothing Congress which refuses to give Lyme disease the attention it deserves. It has demanded much, many lives and it is winning.

Have to words for those that so easily look the other way,

Many Blessings,
