Judy McKenzie's Lyme Treatment
My name is Jacquelyn Stonehocker, I met Judy in 2007 when our husbands were in Military Training.
Judy (32), Wife, & Mother of 3 live Children & twin Angels in Heaven, has been struggling with her health the last 12 years. She was once one of the fastest runners at her junior high and high school & in the district, & is now down to 92 lbs & dropping, & bedridden at least 15 hours a day most days. She loved to be active, sing & dance her heart out, hike, outdoors, serve others, etc. Her life has been turned upside down. For 12 years she didn't know what was wrong & what was causing her health to drop so drastically. She became bedridden most of the time from pain & fatigue, but always pushes herself & gets out of bed with a smile on her face & a positive attitude, living how she desires to live. (Serving her family & others as much as she possibly can.) 
It started in 2004 with the most aggressive thyroid cancer & 2 years of radiation treatments because it spread to her lung . She never really felt better even after being in remission. Major Health problem after health problem arose, including suffering from a Pulmonary Embolism this August 2016! Doctor appointment, after doctor appointment, after doctor appointment. She saw 30 different Doctors just this year to try & figure this out! Diagnosis after diagnosis, then re-diagnosis, then misdiagnosis. This November, She finally got the answer as to what's been causing all of this. She has LYME DISEASE, MTHFR Mutation, Adrenal Dysfunction, Micoplasma, etc (co-infections from the Lyme). 
She is now in bed most of the time, suffering in excruciating pain & indescribable fatigue & in she & her Husband's words, fading quickly, withering away. Lyme is a crippling disease. It eats you from the inside out. There is no cure. But there IS treatment to offer better quality of life. 
Judy's Husband is away a lot in military trainings & she needs to get better as soon as possible so she can keep living for her little Family. She has three beautiful little children ages 3, 6, & 8 & they are her world & vice versa! One of them has down syndrome and it's very hard for her to keep up with all of their energy & be the Mother & Wife she desires to be. 
Please help her get her life back by donating what you can, sharing this, & asking your friends to share and donate. Insurance doesn't cover anything to do with Lyme disease so everything is out of pocket and the costs are ridiculously high for Lyme Treatment. Judy hopes to get treated as soon as possible and treatment starts at $10,000. Every little bit helps. 
THANK YOU so much for taking the time to read this & we pray you will pass the word on. Judy's family wants to thank anyone & everyone who's prayed for her, who will pray for her, who's donated, & who will donate, who's done anything to offer them love & support in any way whatsoever. This Disease can't be survived without all the love & support a human could get. To say it is awful is an understatement. 
In Judy's words, "I live to serve, that's why this disease is the worst! Because it tries to stop me from doing what I love most! Serving my Family, Friends, & Strangers. But even Lyme won't stop me because I've learned that you don't have to be healed to help! I won't stop living. I won't stop fighting. #iGotDis But if I could have better quality of life, I could do SO MUCH MORE GOOD for this World. It is my greatest desire to get feeling better & be able to stay on top of this disease instead of letting it eat me alive."
With Lyme, anytime a stressful event occurs, the Lyme reacts & attacks the body 10 times harder. Judy has lost 9 close family & friends in the last year to death along with other major trials. Yet she keeps a smile on her face & pushes forward with faith. It's time for her to get fixed up & healed up as much as possible.
Judy has faith beyond belief in the Lord & knows that no matter what, everything will be okay. She uses a hashtag with every post she does about her healing journey. #JudysHealingJourney
