Planning ahead: Living and Dying Well with Lyme

Of the 179 death records of adults in the Northeast who have Lyme as part of their COD on the death certificate the average life span is 54 years old. Weigh in that some of these people had very little if any treatment for Lyme. The age of Lyme onset ranged widely.

At 68 my mother in law had a stroke that 6 months later ended her life. She never had a chance to say if I only had 20 more years to live how would I live? But I do. It feels like a blessing.
