Dear Abby: Speedy diagnosis essential for treatment of Lyme disease
Speedy diagnosis essential for treatment of Lyme disease If someone doesn’t recognize the symptoms and seek treatment immediately, Lyme disease becomes chronic and debilitating. Several years ago, my husband caught Lyme disease while sitting in a friend’s living room in California. Because it was caught early, strong antibiotics headed off any serious problems. [...] not everyone is so fortunate, and people with chronic Lyme disease have been known to suffer for life. Daily physical exercise is important for good health. Because none of the activities your father has chosen “for” your sons appeals to them, talk with them, suggest they choose a sport that does interest them and have them sign themselves up for it. P.S.: Because your dad signed his grandkids up for activities, I’m mystified that he wasn’t more involved in providing their transportation.
