Walking the Liminal Path: A Memoir of Lyme Disease, Spiritual Awakening, and Standing with Gaza (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798185359075)

What happens when your body becomes a prison, but your spirit becomes freer than ever before?

In Walking the Liminal Path, Daynise shares the extraordinary true story of living with chronic Lyme disease, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), repeated near-death experiences, and the quiet transformation that followed.

Once an archivist who loved preserving history, Daynise never imagined she would one day become the keeper of something far more precious-the stories of humanity itself.

After a devastating tick bite changed the course of her life, she faced years of debilitating illness, medical dismissal, isolation, and unimaginable loss. Confined largely to her home and bed, she discovered that while her physical world had grown smaller, her inner world had expanded beyond anything she had ever known.

Through profound reflections on disability, spirituality, friendship, animism, and compassion, Daynise invites readers into a life lived at the threshold between life and death, despair and hope, isolation and connection.

Her journey eventually leads her to an unexpected place: the people of Gaza. In their courage, kindness, and determination to remain human amid unimaginable suffering, she discovers a mirror of her own path-and a renewed sense of purpose.

More than a memoir about chronic illness, Walking the Liminal Path is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the healing power of being believed, and the quiet beauty that can emerge from life's deepest hardships.

This is a story for anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or forgotten.

Because before we are our diagnoses...

before we are our circumstances...

we are human.
