Hi All --

You may have noticed but
CitrusLyme (Lynn) has not been to LN
in a long time --(Again)

The reason is she is Very Sick --
to sick to even post here--
and her computer has Wacked out again--


Lynn is 20 yrs old and she lives in Canada --
She is a Good person that needs some help--

I have been talking to her for almost 2 yrs
now- phone and email --

It looks like when it comes to
treating Lyme - Canada is even more
screwed up than it is in the US--Ouch-

She has not been able to get any help
there at all --

If she dose not get help Soon she is-
Not going to make it --

The only option she has left is to move to
the US and see ifshe can get help here --

Lynn was able to get a appointment with
my LLMDin San Francisco at the
begaining of April -Lucky--

And several folks have offered to take her in
for awhile that live close to Frisco --

Needless to say Lynn has little
money after being sick for so long --
( both of her folks are sick too)

She knows this is Alot to Ask of someone -
but she is out of options
--and she has no other choice --

Lynn has Lyme and Babs --
and needless to say the
doctors in Canada know Zero about
treating eather one -
(Maybe Rocky Mountain Spotted fever?)

Lynn is a tuff girl and Very Optimistic --
but her time is Running Out --

At one point in time I was as sick
as Lynn is now--
But I was Lucky and found a LLMD at the last
moment and saved my life --

Im am 100% Sure that if I had not had that-
Lucky Break -
That I would be dead now --

Lynn needs some one to Help her
get that Lucky Break --

Her email is -- [email protected] --

But---
her computer has some kind of virus-
that deletes- Some -of her emails as as soon
as she opens her email--
(People that put viruses on the net
should be Shot )

So if you can not get in contact
with her email me--


You can PM me
(Groovy2 -- #6304) and I can give you more
details about Lynns situation --

Or emal me at -- [email protected] --
(best to email me at Groovy-email because
my PM box is perty full of emails I dont want
to delete)

Lynn has a PayPal account that you
can send money to to help her out--

I have only used PayPal to buy
things on Ebay so I am not sure
how to send money to a person-

Her PayPal account is

[email protected]

( if anyone has used Paypal in this way before
please contact me and fill me in on details--)


Lynn is so sick she is going to have to fly --
so if anyone has any extra Air Miles
they could give her that would be a
Great help to her --
(not sure how it works tho)

Also -- If anyone has any phone
cards with minutes
left on them --she could use them too --

She has to use phone cards to make
long distance phone calls out of Canada --


Lynn could also use some herbs-
Artemisinin and vitamins ect --

Lynn May Also be in need of extria Meds
if you have some extria --
but I am not sure what she
is going to need --

Because Lynn is still in canada at
the moment and its somewhat hard to
send medicine to canada--

If you Want to send meds ect --
you can send them
to me and I will forward it to lynn
when she get to the US --


I Sure Hope WE can help her -- Jay --


PS--
Many of you will remember that about 8 months
ago everybody here on Lymenet raised money to
bring Lynn to the US---
she made it to the US -- But --

Because of some things that happened to
Lynn and her situation that were--

Totally Out of Her Control --
she had to go back to canada before
she was able to get the help she needs --

things will work out better this time --

Lynn needs a Good Break --


--

Wow, I really wish I were able to help her. All I can offer is my gratitude. I really hope she can get help soon. There are so many good people out there that are willing to help. I hope she gets the help she needs and gets better soon. I am so so sorry that I can't be of more help. She has helped me before and I wish I could return the favor. I don't have any money to offer her, but I am here for her and I will pray for her. I am sorry and I hope she gets the help she needs as soon as possible. God bless.

Groovy you are a dear for caring so much .

I am living with my Mom and there is little decent healthcare here (TX) without insurance .
I am about to lose mine and do not know what I will do either .

Has she tried Buhner's protocol? It looks like the best low cost way to go . Or the salt/ C protocol.

I will pray for her.

What herbs/ supplements does she need?

Thanks, Groovy.

You're pretty groovy.

Here's how to send money: Just login to your PalPal account and click the tab that says, "Send Money." It will ask for the recipient's email address.

That's IT.

Easy.

Lynn had very good reasons not to continue her last stay in the U.S. And I do mean very good reasons. Like Groovy said, PM if details are wanted.

I surely hope she can get to sunny California and get some expert LLMD help.

[group hug]

Michelle

Hi Jay.

Don't have a lot of financial resources now, but I am sure I can donate something to help Lynn.

I would much rather mail a check or send a phone card ( I hope $20.00 is okay as I am still trying to rebuild after Katrina).

Please PM me and let me know.

Canada has Dr. M, an amazing LLMD in Vancouver - has Lynn seen him? His work is incredible. He knows Lyme and ALL the co-infections. He has many US patients as well.

I can't imagine him being unable to help her and the bonus is that it only costs the plane ticket.

There is also Dr. B, Dr. S and Dr. R in Ontario. Has Lynn tried these doctors?

Hi All

I just talked to Lynn and she is getting
very excited about the chance to
go see my LLMD--

Things are falling into place
very good so far --

It looks like Lynn has a good chance to get
the help she needs --

I sent Lynn some money using PayPal
and it was Very Easy--
(The net is so Cool)

I know that most everybody on LN is broke-
from paying for meds and docks --

But if you can donate even a dollar or 2
it can add up perty Quickly --

I will contact everyone that has posted
and sent PMs to me --

I type Real slow so it may take a day
for me to get back to you --

(I should have payed attention in
typing class but there was just
to many pretty girls to talk to)

Tell you what-
If we can raise enough money to get
Lynn the help she needs--

I will make a Video of me eating worms
or something like that--
so you can laff at me --

I will let everyone vote on what I
have to do in the video --
Sounds like a good deal to me --

Just remember -- please be kind
with your segestions--LOL--

--Jay--

I have PM'd the name of a LLMD in Ontario for Lynne to contact. His office is about a 2 hour drive from Lynn.

Dr. R has recently written an article disputing the IDSA guidelines and I hope he can help Lynn so she doesn't have to travel so far, and at such expense.

Also, as posted on another thread, I hope Lynn can get at RMSF test done here in Canada so it would be one less test to pay for in the US. I understand that this is a reliable test in Canada, unlike our ELISA.

I hope this information can help Lynn.

Hi folks,

Lynn is coming to California this month to see a naturopath - she couldn't get an appointment with the nurse practitioner in Dr . S's office at the same time, which she'd been trying to do. I'm trying to talk her into seeing my LLMD, which would cost more of course.

I talked to her about her LLMD options in Canada and apparently she didn't have a great experience seeing one of the LLMD's near her, and the other one is in Vancouver which costs almost as much in travel as coming to California. I hope she's OK with me posting this, I didnt ask.
