Hi Friends! I wanted to start by just saying thank you for taking the time to read this, as your support is much appreciated!

In December 2023, a small red lump in my arm marked the start of a long journey with chronic health issues. By early 2024, after moving to Arizona, my symptoms worsened: severe brain fog, memory loss, vertigo, and rapid muscle loss in all four limbs.

After months of doctor visits with little answers, a functional medicine doctor diagnosed me with CIRS (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome) and Lyme Disease—two serious conditions that have left me struggling with daily life.

Through this journey, I’ve held onto faith. Jeremiah 29:11 reminds me: “For I know the plans I have for you… plans to give you hope and a future.” Though my strength may fail, Jesus provides, and my faith grows stronger every day.

Treatment is ongoing and costly, and I cannot continue to cover it alone. I completely understand if you are unable to donate—prayers and sharing this post are deeply appreciated. Your love, prayers, and support mean more than words can express. Thank you for reading, sharing, and supporting me!

God bless,

Madison Cress
