"LYME AID" AT VARSITY THEATER MARCH 30 Benefit concert for local veterinarian with Lyme disease
"Lyme Aid," a benefit concert for Dr. Trudy Jacobs, DVM, will be held at 7:30 pm, March 30 at the Varsity Theater in Davis.
The all-female band "Little Sister" will perform. Their music has been described as "an estrogen-spiced, funky mix of blues, rock acoustic folk and twisted country."
Jacobs, a UC Davis-trained veterinarian, has been suffering the increasingly debilitating effects of chronic Lyme disease for more than ten years. She is unable to work, and her out-of-pocket treatment costs are over $1500 month.
A group of her friends have joined together to raise money to help Trudy afford the essential treatments she needs, so that she can return to work, be an active part of her family, and be the friend and veterinarian she wants to be.
The group also hopes to help raise awareness of Lyme disease. Educational material about the prevention and treatment of Lyme will be available.
Tickets are $20 in advance, $25 at the door. Available at Armadillo Music in Davis, or by emailing [email protected].
