Help Mariah With IVIG Treatment For Lyme Disease

Donation protected
I have been struggling with my health for 6+ years. It all began with a bout of flu-like symptoms that lasted months. I went from being an energetic teenager to frequent infections, extreme fatigue, debilitating migraines, anxiety/depression,  involuntary tics, body aches, and memory problems. We went to doctor after doctor, no one able to distinguish what was happening to me and why I had experienced such a drastic change.

Since then I have fought through these symptoms every day and it has been a struggle to maintain a semblance of a "normal" life.  Every achievement for me comes at a great struggle and cost.

This year I have been fortunate enough to finally get a diagnosis of Lyme disease, which has contributed to me having an extremely low immune cell count. 

I have gotten approved to start IVIg (Intravenous Immunoglobulin Therapy) that I will need to do for 1 year to see results. I will need to go into a treatment center every three weeks for a whole day to get infusions. This therapy has the potential to change my life by reducing my frequent infections and pain, increasing my energy levels, and reducing my brain fog. 

Your generous and kind donation would help me to reclaim my life I lost in high school. It will give me back my youth and I will be able to begin to focus on achieving my dreams.
