...Thanks again, everyone! This means a lot to me! <br /><br />Hermina: Thank you so much. I'm happy to hear that your family was able to get treatment swiftly and easily--what a relief that is! But I'm so sorry about your friend's husband. It breaks my heart, but I understand it. Twice my family and my dog were instrumental in saving my life that way, and I'm grateful every day for it. This disease causes such suffering--physically and psychologically--and it's such a low quality of life that patients have to endure day after day for years. That's one of the reasons I pushed so hard to finish and publish this book and why I'm such an advocate for awareness...My greatest wish is that people know they're not alone in this. Thank you so much for your support. I'm sending all my well wishes to your family!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05332570278984058081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-29990635988240119242016-09-22T10:39:50.759-04:002016-09-22T10:39:50.759-04:00My copy of Dana Kaye's book arrived the day be...My copy of Dana Kaye's book arrived the day before yesterday, and already it has disrupted my worldview. What? Each individual book I write won't sell itself, like, individually? I need to figure out my author brand, like Lucie says above? Hmm, yes. Yes, I see. I see why that makes sense now. Fortunately I have some time to work on this...<br /><br />My ultimate goal is to incorporate singing into my book tours. I welcome any ideas. (And again, there is plenty of time to figure this out.)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09886045611763178062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-6824628203190071862016-09-22T10:36:29.545-04:002016-09-22T10:36:29.545-04:00Susan,

I'll put it on my Amazon wish list. Right now it would just be a negative reminder, like staring at the prom dress that never got worn.<br /><br />I love those bookmarks and I agree you can never have too many. I always have umpteen books going at one time and run out of book marks. <br /><br />Carolynn,<br /><br />We used to have a dog named Justin Case. I think Justin is best friends with a character named Jess Waten in a cartoon strip I did years ago. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kGHmIZ4IUY" rel="nofollow">Yeah, I've been everywhere and done a little bit of everything.</a> JulieWeathershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01361549099072091350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-42460446791978334502016-09-22T10:18:51.940-04:002016-09-22T10:18:51.940-04:00Susan, I checked out 'The Last Letter' and...Susan, I checked out 'The Last Letter' and your website. Whoa. What an amazing story behind the story! <br /><br />Lyme disease awareness is growing, thank goodness. My kids have had some brushes with it and recovered with antibiotics. A friend's husband, diagnosed late, was not so lucky. The emotional decline claimed him.<br /><br />Thank you for writing your story and maintaining your Lyme sites.
