THE CORRECT PH0NE NUMBERS TO MAKE CALLS TO HELP ME (Lyme Mom about to lose kids) are:
Governor McGreevey's office: 609-292-6000

Dept. of Human Services: 609-292-6060
(Ask for Coryndi Scott)

The most important call is to Governor's office. They will "log" the call - and the more calls - the better.

Remember that Ms Scotts office, the Dept of Human Services - is the department - agency (head of DYFS) responsible for this happening to me. (It doesn't hurt to give this woman a good solid background on what Lyme disease does to your health and your kids health. It is "this" agency that disagrees with my sons long term antibiotics treament).

Bye Thanks Will update everyone later
(Am busy sending this phone numbers to everyone on earth that I know)

President of LDA sent out this mesage today:

Thanks to those who called McGreevey's office yesterday.

They have been receiving more calls and apparently are looking into the matter. At this time, I ask that if you have not called, call 609 292 6000, the office of Governor McGreevey. Please just indicate to them you would like them to look into the DYFS/Mishky matter.

Please do not get into adversarial issues with the governor's office, since they are not a part of the problem, but they could be a part of the solution by helping Lyme patients in general, Ms. Mishky in particular. They are interested in the situation of Lyme patients so a very BRIEF summary of your problem is OK if they seem to have the time to hear it.

Thanks for all your help.

This telephone number worked. I called a little after 4 EDT. A woman answered and connected me to the gov's assistant. I told him my name (not my state-CT) and said I'm calling to support Sandy Mishky in her DYFS case about treating her children with Lyme disease. Please look into it and help her. Thank you. He said Thank you to me and that ended the conversation. One reason it went well was that I wrote down everything I wanted to say and was given the time to say all 3 sentences.
