My mother in law, who recently passed away at the age of 86, lamented a few years ago that all of her friends were dying. She was referring to other women and men who had lived long lives, retired, traveled, been blessed with grandchildren, and for the most part, were dying happy and fulfilled.

 
It’s an entirely different thing when all of your friends are dying and they’re mostly under the age of 60.

 
We know that this was the experience of the AIDS community in the 1980s, because they got angry and vocal and told the world that their people were being treated like human trash and left to die.

 
Now, in the year 2017, after 40 years of mystery, intrigue, research, advocacy and activism, all of our Lyme friends are dying and “awareness” and the pursuit of justice only seem to be going backwards.

 
People need to understand that at the root of the problem is a crime of scientific fraud, and that the reason we never get anywhere is because the criminals have all the power, hold important positions at universities and federal agencies, and maintain the FALSE DICHOTOMY argument of persistent infection or not, through controlled opposition, bought media, crooked journal editors, pharma funding, medical societies, political influence, and disinformation campaigns within the patient realm.

 
Anyone who has been around more than a couple years should realize that in 40 years things have only gotten worse. Doing the same old activism and making the same tired arguments have not worked. Why is that so hard to see?

 
How many times do we have to don our neon green garb and throw ourselves at IDSA members, begging them to change the treatment guidelines, before we realize that tactic isn’t working? Is that the definition of insanity?

 
Anyone who has suffered the long term consequences of a dirty tick bite knows, deep down, that antibiotics are not going to fix the problem. In fact, we’re seeing more and more Lyme patients getting immune deficiency diagnoses from mainstream doctors. Yet, the majority of non-profits and self-proclaimed advocates still stand staunchly behind the dogma that “chronic Lyme” is a persistent bacterial infection that requires more and better antibiotics, more money for research, and better tests to detect spirochetes.

 
Better testing is key, yes, for detecting early infection. But what are we supposed to do with such a test if and when it comes into existence?

• New patients still won’t be able to get an appropriate treatment.
• Doctors, having been kept in the dark for 40 years won’t know what to do with those patients.
• It won’t do anything to address the physical and immune damage that is inflicted very early in the infection.
• It will distract from the true disease mechanism by implying that if spirochetes can be detected, then the disease is one of spirochetal infection, only.
• It will deny any justice or medical help for the millions who have already been suffering for years with the chronic OUTCOME of immune system and organ damage precipitated by spirochetal infection.

That’s right. Every “advocate” who advocates for more research, better tests, better antibiotics, different treatment guidelines, or even whacko biowarfare theories, is either completely missing the real issue or is working for the bad guys. Because all of those arguments exclude the very sickest of us, those among us who have endured years of torture, those of us who have lost everything and lead an empty existence, and those of us who already died or took their own lives.

 
There, I said it. I’ll say it again. Lyme community, start advocating for meaningful change.

 
Start advocating for all of your friends with whom you commiserate every day.
Start talking about the issues that can lead to the change that we all know is desperately needed.

 
What is the disease? It’s a wrecked immune system from the toxic lipoproteins that the spirochetes dump when avoiding attack. It’s the chronically reactivated Epstein-Barr and other herpesviruses that result from immune suppression. It’s B cells that don’t function, red blood cells that can’t transfer oxygen, all kinds of opportunistic infections that overwhelm us.

 
Updated treatment guidelines, better testing and more antibiotics cannot fix that.
This is why TruthCures insists on prosecuting the crime that’s at the heart of the issue. The criminals changed the disease definition and testing to facilitate the approval of their Lyme vaccine which was made with the immune suppressing toxic lipoproteins that cause the disease itself!  The “vaccine,” LYMErix, was the very first product to kick off an intended monopoly on vaccines and test kits for all tick-borne diseases. It was pulled off the market after multiple class action suits and testimony of whistleblowers. The crime of falsifying the testing constitutes fraud, racketeering, antitrust, and human rights abuses on a grand scale.

 
Face it: as a community of very ill people, we’ve been duped. We’ve been trained to believe, all these years, that our plight is one of antibiotics vs. no antibiotics. This is the false dichotomy that I mentioned earlier. We’ve been kept prisoners behind walls of lies upon lies upon lies, guarded by people who were supposed to be on our side. They were supposed to protect us, heal us, help us escape. They have failed.

 
Forty years.

 
It’s time to tear down the walls and break free of the Lyme criminals’ grasp, and the grasp of their agents and proxies. It’s time to demand truth and justice.

 
How are your friends doing? All of my friends are dying.
