Parenting with An Illness Revisited

Blessings everyone! I wanted to share this video again that I recorded a little over a year ago in regard to “Parenting with an Illness.” As many of you know and for those who maybe new to me, what led me to becoming a health and wellness coach was my battle with Lyme disease and co-infections and also what I saw my mother go through with ovarian cancer.

This video could be for any parent/guardian that is going through an illness or having to deal with a medical condition. I know with the weather where I live being so all over the place, a couple of my symptoms flare at times like they are today, and I have to keep myself uplifted and positive. I rewatched my own video just to give myself motivation and I hope that it can help someone else as well.
If you like to talk more about my journey, what health and wellness coaching is about and my practice (Divine Wryte Wellness), then please message me here.
Take very good care, keep your head and spirits lifted and if you’re having a very difficult time, please reach out to loved ones or those who can assist. Sending love, light and peace to each of you.

Advocating for Your Health Condition! You Deserve Fair and Great Treatment!

Peace, love and light everyone, I hope all is well. I wrote a blog about bad bedside manner and how I’ve experienced doctor’s not being good listeners, misdiagnosing me, lack of compassion and other stuff. I decided to put a video together in honor of Ovarian Cancer and GYN Cancer Awareness month, but this video pertains to anyone with any sort of health condition (I have Chronic Lyme) and even if you have pristine health and getting your annual checkups, you still deserve the very best care.
.

For those who haven’t heard of this term “bad bedside manner” it means a few things. There’s a lack of or no compassion expressed, their listening skills is low or at a zero, yes they are medical experts BUT even though you are the expert of your own body they try to downplay what you do know about your own self & condition and they even will go as far as to state that a couple of the other doctors you may have on your medical team like I do are wrong (they are know it all’s). Some feel as if they can talk to you any which way.

I hope this video empowers someone and sheds some light. You are your own best advocate and if you have a caregiver then they are as well. Just know that you are worthy of having the best care, to be the center of attention, to be listened to and to receive good treatment. PERIOD!

Lyme Disease, The Immunocompromised Community and COVID 19 on The Dr. Vibe Show

Peace, love and light everyone! If you missed this wonderful conversation or would like to check it out again, then click on the video to watch as we talked about Lyme Disease, the immunocompromised community and COVID 19. This conversation took a great turn as we dove into what it has been like as a single mother not only with Lyme Disease, but to live through a pandemic. It has been a journey to say the least. We ended the showing agreeing that we will have a follow up conversation and panel with other single parents and see how they have gotten through the pandemic, what were their supports and what do they do each day just to make it.

Many blessings and I know the storm is not over, praying for each of you as we get through this pandemic one step at a time.

Living with Lyme Disease on The Victory Speaks Show

Blessings everyone! A big thank you to everyone who was able to tune into the Victory Speaks show on May 31st as we closed out Lyme disease Awareness Month. Many thanks to Nicole Donawa Waldron, the host of Victory Speaks, for a fantastic show. For those who didn’t get a chance to watch or couldn’t see the whole show, please check out the replay on YouTube and subscribe to our channels VictorySpeaks7 and divinewryte.

Although the month has ended and we are starting a new, I will always advocate for more research, way more treatments to be covered by insurance and educate people about Lyme disease all year long. So stay tuned for more updates from the field, the Lyme community and about my upcoming memoir that is about my battle with Lyme disease. Be well, safe and many blessings.

Lyme Disease Awareness Post: Toxins and Exposures…A Good Lesson for Everyone

Photo Credit By Cottonbro at Pexels.com
Many blessings everyone. Here’s another Lyme Disease Awareness Post that could help EVERYONE. I have learned a great deal about toxins and toxic exposure. It impacts people with Lyme Disease in more ways then I like. However I’m now more aware of what’s in various products, what I put on my body, cleaning products and pay more attention to my work environment and how it can all effect me and my son.
.
Check out my video and learn about toxins and take the challenge and while you’re at it, please subscribe to my channel at divinewryte.

We are surrounded by pollutants and toxins everyday, we may not be able to fully control what’s outside or at our work environments fully. In this video I talk about ways where bit by bit you can make changes that will enhance your life and keep you and your family safer. I encourage you as well to talk to your jobs if you are at an office about ways they can be a safer environment from cleaning products, cleaning the air vents, air filtration systems and even looking at the various equipment used like copiers, computers, printers for example and see if there are some on the market that wouldn’t expel toxins.
