Our Family Fights Lyme Disease!

In spring of 2013, my daughter woke up to a tick on her leg in Michigan. Not knowing anything about Lyme disease or ticks, she brushed it off. Soon after, she began getting severely dizzy, had rashes on her legs & arms, night sweats, migraines & extreme abdominal pain. Her little boy (7mos at the time) also developed rashes & symptoms. A local doctor wrote it off & handed them an rx for a steroid cream.
FAST FWD 3yrs later to present day, she has been diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease & a slew of its coinfections, struggling with symptoms she exhibited back when she was first bit, on top of many others. Her health has deteriorated to where she cannot work & her fiancé supports their family on his very small income.

Living in New Mexico now, there's very few options & resources for treatment & care. Her previous Lyme RN has retired. The latest feels there's more going on with her liver, cholesterol, blood & neurological issues that are above her scope of practice, having no recommendations for referrals that are local, let alone in network.
No one who is Lyme literate, accepts their Medicaid & doctors who are, are expensive & out of state.

Now, It is no longer just my daughter. Both her babies have Lyme, too. Her 3yo is showing signs of  ASD caused by congenital Lyme disease and Dylan 4, suffers every month from recurrent  fevers, nosebleeds, mast cell activation & bone/joint pain.  
Living in a state without any qualified medical doctors, having Medicaid that will not cover ANY appointments or treatments, has left them all desperate in every way possible, with their health declining more & more.
Any help would support this family in their fight to obtain a Lyme literate doctor, the proper treatments,tests & the appointments that are at this point, a requirement.
It is their hope to gain a better quality of life & to help educate & bring awareness to this endemic, debilitating disease that has hijacked not just their family, but those of the thousands that have been effected by this grossly dismissed disease.
Thank you & many blessings.
