Help for Crystal's Medical Expenses
Donation protected
Crystal Noelle has been fighting chronic lyme disease daily for most of her teen and young adult life.
She has been trying to hang on to hope, as she watched her friends enjoy their teen years. She is STILL tying to hang on to hope as she watches them now get married and have kids Meanwhile, she tries to just daily manage her pain, keep her hopes up, and FIGHT this daily illness.
She has been through typical antibiotic treatments as well as long term Intravenous treatments. We have been praying for wisdom as to what to pursue to see her on a path to healing, and have some kind of a normal life.
Last year Crystal moved to Texas and we found a doctor that believes in getting to the bottom of the issues. Through testing, she was found to have some mutations that cause her body to not be able to detox well. Her body has basically been functioning at 20%.
It is believed that may be why her body as well as other chronic lyme sufferers, has not been able to heal from Lyme.
The doctor is helping her to slowly coax her body to work better, by supplementing with missing nutrients that will replace the ones she is not making herself. He is also trying to help her detox her system through special diet and supplements. This will be a long term treatment plan - but that is what life with chronic illness is like - daily and always.
While it may not seem as exciting as a short term big treatment plan, it is just as important - and she needs help more than ever. She added up her doctor appointments and supplements and meds and the costs exceed $1000 a month. She has other costs as well.
She is pursuing disability, but that can take up to a year yet. She just got some fantastic disability lawyers in Tx and they are starting to gather the information they need to help her.
Ultimately her goal is complete healing, but short of a miracle that is going to take time, and money she does not have. She does not want to have to stop treatment - as she is seeing small steps forward.
Crystal is looking for help for her monthly costs for 2015. Any amount is helpful, whether a one time donation or a monthly donation.
Let's help her continue to fight this disease and kick its butt!
