Have you heard of a Lyme manual written by a mom in NJ (or MD?)...on how to deal with the school system on behalf of your children with Lyme disease?

Dr. VTS mentioned this manual. She said there should be a link from the "Teacher's observations" that antibiotics helped a 3rd grader's school performance...an article posted on her website.

Unfortunately I couldn't find an author or other link to this information.

I'm not sure if I have what you are looking for, but your question did make me think of the Lyme Times, Fall, 2003 edition:

http://lymetimes.org/archives/LT35.pdf

Begin on page 11 for an overview. There's an article on Lyme pain in children from Dr. VS, and an excellent article on school accommodations from clinical social worker SB.

Hope that gets you started,

Shaz

Thank you Shazdancer!

This link has excellent information regarding Lyme disease in children, educating students with Lyme, children with Lyme pain, and other stuff.

I left a message for SB in hopes she will know of the manual I'm looking for.

Shazdancer or anyone else...

This issue (No. 35) is not "THE Children's Issue" of The Lyme Times that is said to be an excellent resource for parents of children with Lyme disease.

There are at least two special issues of the Lyme Times that deal with Lyme disease in children.

http://lymetimes.org/

Click on the 3rd link in the top left menu to "Special Issues of Lyme Times." You'll then see a list of several issues of the Lyme Times.

Two issues specifically discuss Lyme disease in children. One issue addresses treatment in children; one issue addresses education problems.

Bulk orders of these issues are available to CALDA members.

Fees:

$35 to join CALDA ( California Lyme Disease Association) Follow the link.

$30 for a package of back issues.

You may use Paypal or regular mail.
