  • Good Problems to Have

    I’m writing from Williamsburg, Virginia, where I’m spending the winter holidays with my sister and her family and my parents. It’s a pleasure to be here. I love playing with my nephew, hanging out with my sister, getting into winding,… Continue reading

    Ever since I started taking diatomaceous earth, my Herxes have shifted. I still get headaches, but the rest of the cascade has gotten milder. Even the headaches aren’t as bad as they were this summer. Even still, I could feel… Continue reading
