Ross has been suffering from the total and absolute debilitating effects of Lyme (a disease caused by being bitten by a tick) and the co-infections arising from it for over 20 years now. His story – and the total lack of any recognition/support for Chronic Lyme sufferers here in the UK - makes for horrendous reading.
After now not working for over 4 years due to illness and spending over £50,000 of their own savings trying to make things better - Amber & close family are trying to raise funds to get Ross in to a specialist clinic in Poland to undergo a treatment called SOT (Supportive Oligonucleotide Therapy). SOT works by telling the specific pathogen to stop reproducing - which then allows it to die out naturally. With the amount of pathogens and different strains Ross has, we need to raise £20,000 to get him through his first course of treatment. Some people are lucky enough to only need one course of SOT to kill off their Lyme and co-infections, others might need two or three.
Amber & Ross have reached out for help so this group is to help our friend attempt to begin to hopefully get out of this horrendous situation - anything we can do will be hugely appreciated by them!
I have a lot of ideas in the pipeline but please feel free to use this group to fundraise, organise any events & share information etc…
The full story of Ross’ condition is attached in the ‘files’ section of the Facebook group…please do have a read and help in any possible way you can. If anybody does have any questions or ideas please do get in touch.
