Have a wonderful afternoon, do your gift-shopping in one convenient place, and help Dr. Jones all at the time!
Thanks to this can-do mom whose kids suffered hugely and were given the run-around until they got dx and treated for Lyme-disease. This is a really creative initiative that deserves your support if you live in the area.

I really appreciate the roll-up-your-sleeves and get-to-work approach of this Lyme mom. Thanks, Sheila!
Hope tomorrow afternoon's fund-raiser in Framingham, MA (near Boston) is a huge success for Dr. Jones.

Sheila reports that the fundraiser netted a minimum of $3000.00 for Dr. Jones' fund. Congratulations and thanks to her and her family and the attendees on the successful event.
Fundraisers like this are especially valuable in that they do a lot to raise awareness about the subject and need for the fund.
Individual contributions are still sorely needed to make up the bulk of the $50,000 that Dr. Jones has now stated needs to be raised for the hearings in September.
(Dr. Jones hopes that these will be the final two hearings regarding his case. See his letter posted here June 30.)
So please look for items to donate to the e-bay auction, for Dr. Jones, etc., but also very, very, very seriously consider sending a check to the fund now for immediate use. We don't want the lawyers having to wait till the last moment to prepare the case because the funds are not in place to allow them to go ahead. Haste is not a good way to get good results. Let's get the money to his fund speedily.
