Non-Fiction Memoir | Self-Help Health
Ally was at a breaking point when she woke up in a psych
ward at the age of eighteen. She couldn't put a sentence
together, let alone take a shower, eat a meal, or pick up a
phone. What had gone wrong? In recent years, she had
produced a feature film, a popular reality show for a major
network, and had acted in an off-Broadway play. But now,
Ally was pushed to a psychotic break after struggling since
she was seven years old with physical symptoms that no
doctor could explain; everything from joint pain, to night
sweats, memory loss, nausea, and brain fog. A doctor in the psych ward was finally able to give her the
answers her and her family had desperately been searching
for, and the diagnosis that all the previous doctors had
missed. She learned that she had Lyme disease-and finally
had a breakthrough. What she didn't know was that this diagnosis would lead her
down some of the most excruciating years of her life before
beginning her journey to recovery from eleven years of
misdiagnosis and physical pain. She would need to find her
courage to heal physically, mentally, and emotionally, and
become the survivor she is today. Set against the backdrop of the fast-paced fashion and
entertainment industries, BITE ME shares the heartbreaking
and hilarious stories that moved Ally forward on her journey
from sickness to health. Its themes will be familiar to more
than 300,000 Americans diagnosed with Lyme disease each
year, many of whom, like Ally, wondered for years what was
wrong with them. BITE ME offers readers hope and ideas for how one can
transition from victim to survivor, and shares the spiritual
principles and actions that have contributed to her
wholeness as a human, mother, and international spokesperson
against Lyme disease.
