This photo was taken when I was seventeen, a senior in high school. It was Christmas day and I was opening presents with my family at my Grandparents house. I was so exhausted, I literally fell asleep in the middle of opening a hat, glove and scarf set! At the time, my family found this hilarious and continued to tease me for weeks to come. My sisters dubbed my ability to fall asleep anywhere, at anytime, "my superpower." Looking back, and knowing what I know now, this was the beginning of my journey with Lyme Disease.
