Help Trish Heal Devastating Lyme Disease

After struggling through painful and mysterious symptoms for over a decade and bouncing from doctor to doctor, we finally found a medical doctor in Los Angeles who began connecting the dots. After years of countless hospital visits and disappointing providers, Trish was finally diagnosed with late stage lyme disease, in addition to a number of other complications and infections that resulted from having a compromised immune system. Trish has a genetic mutation that makes detoxification significantly harder, an autoimmune thyroid disorder that was being left untreated, and other infections, complications, and deficiencies. When Lyme disease goes untreated for a long time or is not treated effectively, the bacteria spreads throughout the body causing a number of serious neurological complications and organ damage. When Trish could no longer remember basic things, we contacted doctors desperate for help.

While finally getting answers and understanding the bigger picture has been a relief, it comes at an extremely high cost. Trish has been aggressively treating her condition for months under the care of an amazing team who remain optimistic about her recovery-- but many of her treatments and medications are not covered by insurance. Treatments include injections, IVs, detox therapies, mouth surgery, ozone therapy, and a tonsillectomy in the coming months when her body is strong enough. This disease and these treatments, that often make things feel worse before better, have completely drained Trish of her bubbly and exuberant energy along with her ability to function normally. We need Trish to continue having access to her treatments without this financial burden destroying her life and her health.

No one ever wishes to find themselves or the people they love in desperate situations. All donations will go to helping Trish get her health back. Sharing and spreading the word means just as much as donating and we are grateful for every single one of you who share or donate. This disease deserves more awareness, funding, and research overall and for more information Global Lyme Alliance is a helpful resource. Thanks so much for your help, love, and support.
