I have just read a article on a little girl who had been sick for the
last four years. The name stuck with me and the picture of her stuck
with me also, but I could not figure out who she was. The poor little
girl had Lyme disease and no doctor could figure it out. She ended up
going to Connecticut to a doctor and he finally found out that she had
Lyme disease. I was telling my parents and my sister about the story and
my sister told me that it was sally who my niece showed and took care
of there goats with. I felt so bad for her, because she is a very good
kid and was always happy. She is know helping organize a community "Tick
Talk" and she is the one talking to schools things like that. I think
it is a great thing what she is doing.
When I first
looked it up I used my Yahoo Search and came up with a bunch of
different things and two that had her story. The first one I looked at
was from the Bangor Daily New and the head line was "A Brewer girl hopes
her battler with Lyme disease can help." This had a lot of info about
the story and how many doctors she went to and than about the one who
figured it out for her. I did not have a lot about her "Tick Talk" that
she is putting together for other people, so they don't have to go
throw what she went through. I will go back to the Bangor Daily New to
see and read articles. I like how they update there on line paper all the time, If you looked at the paper you would have to wait for it to come out the next day. It is a lot faster to look it up online. You have to pay for the new paper, but when you look it up online it does not coast anything. I really like that. With the real new paper that you get in the mail, when you are reading a story they only show half of it than you have to look half way throw the paper to find the other half of the story to finishing reading it I don't like that at all, but when you look it up online it is all there and don't have to find it is a lot easy to read.
I also looked at "BDN Blogs
Maine Out There" The head line was "Brewer girl Lyme disease story
powerful" I did not think there was a lot of detail about her story like
the parts about being sick and how bad she got with the disease. It did
have a lot about her "Tick Talk" and were she was having them and when.
It got right to the point and was o.k I would go back to look at
articles. With the BDN is about the same thing it's free to read. You don't have to wait to read it and the story is all they. I really liked how it was set up it was easy to get to and it was a good set up I thought.
