After battling mysterious and various crippling medical conditions plus many misdiagnoses and countless lab tests, my best friend of almost 20 years Candace Stellaine DeLeon was recently diagnosed with Advanced Lyme Disease.

She flies out 8/19 to Scottsdale AZ for treatment at Envita Medical Center (known for their advancement in Lyme) for a minimum of 10 weeks. Although effective, most treatments are not FDA approved so that means no help from insurance. We are trying to raise at least $80,000 (the minimum cost of treatment not including flight, housing and living expenses)

So far, there are many benefits being held through August and September in Live Oak County and one here in CC.
Please help my best friend. She's a great person even in this terrible world and I hate seeing her in so much pain. She went from being completely self-sufficient, bailing hay and working her own land (told ya she's a bad ass chick) to being bound to a wheelchair at times and unable to drive in just three short months.
Thank you all for your time and please educate yourself on tick borne diseases. We're in South Texas, folks! We have plenty of ticks that's for sure #sheaintgotnotimeforLyme #educateyourself
