I am grateful to the Lyme community for the outpouring of support for me in my case before the Connecticut state medical board.
We have set up a legal defense fund so that I can present the most effective case before the board.
The details of how to contribute to my fund are set forth in the letter below.
Thank you again for all your help.

Dear Friends,
During this winter after the holidays when we have much to be grateful for and are in a charitable frame of mind, please remember the man who has been there to diagnose and treat chronic Lyme and tick-borne diseases for our children, grandchildren, nephews and nieces: Dr Charles Ray Jones. Please also remember the man who has treated many of our children promptly so that today they are not plagued by the burden of a lifelong illness.
On January 26th (or a later date if he is granted a continuance) Dr Jones will begin his hearings with the Connicticut Board of Medicine. Long before that first hearing date even takes place, his legal expenses will be enormous. So he rerally does need financial support NOW !
Dr Charles Ray Jones has been there to help our children seven days a week for many years. He has treated more than 7,000 children with chronic Lyme disease. Now, HE needs OUR help !
This is a man who marched with Martin Luther King. This is a man who puts himself and his career on the line every day for our children.
If you've ever pondered spiritually about what it would take for a person to be a real saint, you need look nowhere else!
This man's integrity and committment to children is far beyond reproach.
Please make a generous contribution ON BEHALF OF OUR CHILDREN by forwarding your checks to Dr Jones' accountant at:
"The Dr Charles Ray Jones Legal Defense Fund" c/o George Heath, III (CPA) 26 Fairlawn Drive Wallingford, CT 06492 (203) 782-4343
Please also write the word "gift" in the memo field. Legal defense funds are not tax deductible, and tax exempt Lyme disease organizations are not permitted to contribute to these funds. It is up to those of us who know what a horror that this illness can be to help Dr. Jones get the best legal representation possible by contributing to this fund.
100% of your donation will go directly to the legal defense of Dr Jones. His case is critical to all children with Lyme and it's outcome will have a tremendous impact on all LLMD's in the future! We lost Dr Petrucha a number of years ago. If we loose Dr Jones, where will our children go for proper diagnoses and treatment of Lyme and other tick-borne diseases?
This is truly a CALL FOR ACTION ! If you should need further information, please call Dr Jones' office at (203) 772-1123.
Thank you sincerely in advance for your help !
Best wishes, John Coughlan
