After 5 years of treatment, my 11 year old grandson has "graduated" and was declared well by our hero, Dr. Jones!

It was a long and difficult road as you moms all know...but I am so happy to report the good news and hope it might give a ray of hope to others still in the trenches!

God bless Dr. Jones

Nan,
What wonderful news!!!
In addition to the 3 cheers for Dr Jones, I'd like to hear a 21 gun salute for our Hero.

I'm thrilled for you, your grandson, & everyone else in the family.

My 12 yr old grandson has been a patient of Dr Jones for 9 months. He told us in April that Thomas is "fixable" but it may take 5 yrs.
He is on Zithromax & Minocycline & Dr Jones is pleased that he is showing gradual improvement. Most of his symptoms are neurological.

We're hoping it will be sooner than 5 yrs, but we're not complaining. We're so thankful that the people on LymeNet shared the info about Dr Jones.

Thomas has probably had Lyme for 5 yrs, but his symptoms were not really typical of most children. No fatigue, no problems with stomach or joints, & very few headaches.
He has amazed me because he always had the energy to play sports: basketball, baseball, & this year 7th grade football & wrestling.

Thank you for sharing your grandson's story of successful treatment.

Oh, Nan, what incredible news!

CONGRATULATIONS a million times over!! I am so happy for your grandson and for your entire family.

Dr. Jones is a saint, isn't he?

My little girl has been symptom free for 18 days now. I'm feeling very optimistic that she'll soon be off abx, too. Well, "soon" as in relatively speaking.
