where are they now? someone should have contacted me..i've been off lymenet so long didn't see this one...
I can contact someone from the ri lyme coalition and see what czn be done, but other than pay for meds IF ordered by a physycian and covered by insurance here in RI, there are NO drs here who deal with lyme...it IS a crime..a very sad one....we have a Ronald mcDonald house across the street from RI hospital, but I think you have to be a patient there...hve here give them a call at: 401-274-4447...I"m sure they'll take her in while she is so sick..
Have her call me if she needs to also ...email me for my phone number, or lish's mom has it also, as do some others...
ok...

Lish's Mom.. Have you talked to Doc J s office about getting her to Norwalk Hospital if she should go into dietress again?
Doc K has priveledges there, in the neurology ward. This as a plan should she go into arrest again.
Otherwise..are they planning to see Doc K in his office asap?
She needs the team of J and K.
Hoping they get there..

I think this family should SUE the HELL outta Hampton Inn. I feel sure this type of discrimination is very illegal.

Mom has been given the list of resources that you all have provided me. She is in a different hotel this evening, and will hopefully, after discussing with Dr. Jones, what the next step will be. She CANT afford to stay in the motel, but had checked in when she finally contacted me. (her cell phone had died w/no battery plug in until she got to a motel or something) I also sent her the URL here, and she was on the phone, and on a computer, and was touched!...she will get a good night sleep and then begin to worry about tomorrow when tomorrow arrives. She is totally exhausted!!
I have some contact with some higher ups who are going to begin looking at this and hopfully offering some legal remedy for what has happened.
I asked her to post here, but she was going to nap first...I suspect that her nap may take a very long time, as shes exhausted.

Thanks for keeping us updated. If she would like, perhaps folks who can help, could call the hotel and pay for a night for her and her daughter. At least she would not have to worry about lodging.
Please email me at [email protected] if you think something like this will work.

Please add me to the list of people willing to contribute.
I want to support whatever approach feels most managable for this poor, beleaguered mom and child.
Tomorrow is going to be another bit of "pedal to the metal" day with some of JC's issues (mostly health/school admin/ appts)but I will give Dr. J's office a call to let them know I'm available, too.
Thanks for keeping us posted, Lish's Mom!
And...for the other Mom and little girl out there..if you're reading this:
We are here for you and you don't have to do this alone anymore!!
I wish I knew how to do some great funny faces and graphics to cheer you up, but I'll leave that to my more technically talented compatriots. (And you know who you are! )
All the best, peace and prayers, andie

Everybody here wants to know how you're doing and whats been happening since your return.
I hope things have settled a little and you have gotten a bit of a plan of acton. You couldn't be at a better place to get that kind of support than here at Lymenet.
There are so many wise Lyme folks here who are generous and willing to share what they know.
Kind of like a "random acts of kindness day" except its 365.
Being without a phone is the pits; thank goodness for the internet!
That being said, I'm not sure about how to transfer you to the right site...sorry.
But I will push this "to the top" so those in the know can help out.
Please keep us posted when you can.
Hugs to you and kisses to your little sweetie.
love, andie

THE PEOPLE INVOLVED HAVE BEEN SEEN BY DR. JONES FOR POSSIBLE TICK BORNE ILLNESSES.
THEY HAVE SINCE RETURNED HOME SAFELY AND DO NOT NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE AT THIS POINT.
