Sofia Fragoso Fight Lyme Disease

Donation protected
My name is Laura, and I am Sofi’s mom. I am organizing this GoFundMe to help my daughter continue her fight against Lyme disease.

Sofi is 17 years old, a bright, determined young girl with a heart full of dreams. Since she was little, cheerleading and classical ballet have been her greatest passions. Movement, the stage, and school were her everyday life… until, at just 11 years old, she began experiencing symptoms that no one could explain. After years of uncertainty, pain, countless medical visits, and unanswered questions, she was finally diagnosed in 2024 with Lyme disease. This little-known illness, and one that currently has no cure, has severely affected her knees and hips, taking away her mobility and forcing her to put her normal teenage life on hold. Things as simple as going to school, training, or spending time with friends became physical and emotional challenges.

In 2025, through an extraordinary family effort, Sofi was able to travel to the United States to receive a cellular treatment that helped her significantly. But her journey is not over. To maintain her progress and keep the disease under control, she now needs to begin a new cycle of treatment as soon as possible, along with a strict specialized diet and essential supplements that are a key part of her therapy.

We want to be completely transparent: Lyme disease has no cure at this time. Managing it requires ongoing, long-term, and very costly care. In Mexico, where we live, there are simply not enough medical resources or treatment options available for her condition. Today we come to you with open hearts. Every donation—no matter the amount—and every share brings Sofi closer to continuing her treatment and reclaiming her quality of life.

We are a family that firmly believes in miracles. We trust in God and in the kindness of people, and we know that with your support Sofi will be able to keep fighting, slowly return to the activities she loves, and continue building the future she dreams of. Through her story, we also hope to raise awareness about Lyme disease so that one day treatments will be accessible to everyone, no matter what country they live in. Sofi needs to start this next phase of treatment ASAP, so any support or share means more to us than words can express.

Thank you for being part of her healing. Thank you for being part of her miracle.

Sofi tiene 17 años y es una joven llena de luz, disciplina y sueños. Desde muy pequeña encontró su felicidad en el cheerleading y el ballet clásico. El movimiento, el escenario y la escuela eran parte de su vida diaria… hasta que a los 11 años comenzaron síntomas que nadie lograba explicar. Después de años de incertidumbre, dolor, estudios y muchas respuestas incompletas, en 2024 finalmente recibió el diagnóstico: enfermedad de Lyme. Esta condición poco conocida y sin cura ha afectado seriamente sus rodillas y su cadera, limitando su movilidad y obligándola a poner en pausa su vida normal. Actividades que para cualquier joven son cotidianas, como ir a la escuela, entrenar o salir con sus amigos, para Sofi se convirtieron en grandes desafíos físicos y emocionales. En 2025, gracias a un enorme esfuerzo familiar, Sofi pudo viajar a Estados Unidos para recibir un tratamiento celular que le ayudó significativamente. Sin embargo, el proceso no termina ahí. Para mantener los avances y controlar la enfermedad, necesita comenzar un nuevo ciclo de tratamiento lo antes posible, acompañado de una dieta especializada y suplementos específicos que forman parte fundamental de su terapia. Queremos ser completamente transparentes:

La enfermedad de Lyme no tiene cura en este momento, y su tratamiento es largo, constante y costoso. En México, donde vivimos, no existen los recursos médicos necesarios ni los protocolos adecuados para atenderla como ella lo necesita.
Hoy recurrimos a ustedes con el corazón en la mano.Cualquier donación sin importar la cantidad y cada vez que compartan esta campaña nos acerca a que Sofi pueda continuar su tratamiento y recuperar su calidad de vida. Somos una familia que cree firmemente en los milagros. Confiamos en Dios y en la bondad de las personas, y sabemos que con su apoyo Sofi podrá seguir luchando, volver poco a poco a sus actividades y continuar construyendo el futuro que sueña. Ojalá que a través de su historia también podamos crear más conciencia sobre esta enfermedad y abrir camino para que, algún día, los tratamientos sean accesibles para todos, sin importar el país en el que vivan.
Gracias por ser parte de esta esperanza.
