Campaign Story
Chronic Lyme Disease causes immobilizing joint pain, neurological damage
and personality change, making work difficult to impossible many days.
The disease is cruel, unpredictable and invisible. Big life plans take a
back seat, just to be able to afford the very costly treatments, many
are not covered by insurance.
3 years ago, Emily
Spindler-Richardson came down with Lyme disease. We lived in Missouri
and at that time few doctors believed there were Lyme strains in
Missouri. They were wrong and so the disease was not properly treated
and became a chronic condition.
Emily has been on massive levels
of antibiotics and other meds and herbals with a very limited diet for a
solid 3 years, but they've stopped being effective and she is not able
to work right now to help pay for IV treatments and a move to be nearer a
specialist in the field who can help her find alternatives to
medications that are harming her immune system. Time is critical so that
the disease doesn't do further neurological damage.
We would
like to humbly ask your help in helping her get her life back. She's an
amazing, intelligent and radiant young woman who has so much to offer
the world. Much gratitude in advance.
