I'm from the beautiful and sunny (might be wishful thinking) Highlands of Scotland. Finding Joy is my debut novel which is about a family fighting Lyme disease!

How do ticks spread Lyme disease? Ticks pass through 3 life stages: larva, nymph & adult, & require a blood meal in each stage. The tick may become infected during one feed before transmitting infections during its next feed. lymeresourcecentre.com/about… #TickBitePreventionWeek
Image shows blue text on white background describing the lifecycle stages of ticks. An infographic depicts the lifecycle stages of ticks and how infections are transmitted whilst a second image shows where ticks are most likely to be found on human adults and children. A link to the Lyme Resource Centre website will provide further information about ticks.

Been trying on hand at making bookmarks with sea glass that I’ve collected on my beach walks. What do you all think? Shall I start selling them on my stall? 🤔the green ones are very fitting for Lyme 😃 #lymediseaseawareness #lymesucks #bookmarks #authorsofinstagram📚 #booklover

Trying out @thrivahealth after the GP refused/were unable to run some test. It was surprisingly painless, quick and easy. Now I just need to wait a few days for the results 🤞#bloodtesting #healthforall #chronicillnesslife #lymedisease #lymewarrior #lyme #healthylifestyle
