Imagine waking up every day feeling like your body is under attack — extreme fatigue, joint pain, brain fog, and a list of symptoms so long and overwhelming that even doctors struggle to keep up. This has been Madalyn's daily reality for years.
After countless visits to specialists, misdiagnoses, and moments where hope seemed out of reach, Madalyn was finally diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease. For those unfamiliar, Lyme disease isn’t just a rash and a round of antibiotics. When left untreated or misdiagnosed (as it so often is), it can become debilitating and affect every part of a person’s life — physically, emotionally, and financially.
Madalyn is one of the strongest people I know. Even on her worst days, she pushes through the pain to show up for others with compassion, warmth, and courage. But now she needs our help.
There is a promising infusion treatment that could be life-changing for Madalyn. It's designed to reduce the inflammation, neurological symptoms, and pain caused by Lyme disease. The treatment is intensive, and unfortunately, not covered by insurance. The cost is between $10,000 and $12,000, which is simply not something Madalyn can shoulder alone.
This is where we come in.
We’re rallying together to help Madalyn get the treatment she needs to heal. Every dollar raised will go directly toward her medical expenses, travel to the treatment center, and post-infusion recovery care.
If you've ever known someone with a chronic illness, you understand the emotional and financial toll it takes. And if you don’t know Madalyn personally, just know that you’re helping someone who has fought long and hard, and who just wants a chance to live pain-free and reclaim the life Lyme disease has taken from her.
Even if you can’t give, please consider sharing this campaign with others. Awareness is everything.
Thank you for being a part of Madalyn's journey back to health. Your kindness means the world.
With deep gratitude,
