Olivia's Lyme Fight

Hi! My name is Olivia. I contracted Lyme disease in 2013. Before I got sick I enjoyed hanging with my friends. I looked forward to playing volleyball, sleepovers, and normal teen stuff. The kind of stuff so many take for granted.  Now its hard because when you have lyme you dont look sick. It is an invisible illness. So while I look normal a war is raging on inside my body leaving me bed ridden and in extreme pain. I was finally diagnost in February 2013  after numerous failed doctor visits. My treatment requires me to take upwards of 30 pills a day. I attend school but on a special program. Its only 4 hours a day but I frequently miss because I can barely get out of bed somedays let alone go to school. But hey it's something right?!.... My new treatment protocal is very exspensive. Costing my family upwards of 600 dollars a month. Thats the amount insurance doesn't cover because Lyme isn't recognized as a legitamate chronic illness. So we are asking for donations to help with the costs. No donation is too small. We appreciate any help. And if you cannot donate your continued prayers and encouagment goes a long way....xoxo
