Please Support Gabrielle Fight Against Chronic Lyme Disease

Donation protected
For those who don't know my daughter Gabrielle, she is 35, a wonderful wife and a mother of 4 very energetic kids.
They are a very active family, loves to travel all over the country and beyond. Gabrielle has been very involved in the kids' school and loving to help at church. Wherever cooking or baking needs to be done, Gaby is always the first to bake for others.

Gabrielle has been dealing with some abnormal symptoms since her first pregnancy with her oldest son Micah about 10 years ago. She has gone to dozens of doctors who have tried to help in many ways, from switching diets, long course of antibiotics, and other medications with no changes at all.

In May 2023, after running her first half marathon, Gabrielle's health really took a turn for the worse, and simple tasks became very hard. Still trying to figure out what was going on, she went from the doctors appointment to the doctors appointment with no real help.

Finally, in April 2024, she found a doctor who took the time to listen, and she was diagnosed with chronic Lyme's disease. She started treatment with this doctor right away, but unfortunately, that didn't last too long with the passing of the specialist.

At that point, it was back to square one. She moved her family to the east coast to try to live a simpler life and reduce the daily demands on her body. She began seeing another specialist out east but unfortunately did not see improvement. So, with her health still declining and having more neurological symptoms, migraines, dizziness, memory loss, joint pains and starting to lose the use of her hands. She grew more and more concerned for her future as a mother and wife.

With the help of other lyme patients, she was able to find a clinic in NY that has some very good success with treating this horrible disease. This will include an 8 week long treatment at the clinic. This requires an 8 week long stay in NY, and the treatment itself is very overwhelming costly. But since Canada doesn't have many avenues for treatment, this is her best chance at getting back to her family life healthy.

Thank you for your generosity - whether through financial contributions or by sharing this fundraiser. Every little bit helps.
