As you know, I am under investigation by the Connecticut Medical Examining Board for the long-term treatment of Lyme Disease and coinfections in two siblings that resided outside of Connecticut. Three hearings have already taken place regarding this case, and I am very optimistic and confident about the two to follow in September 2006.
My attorneys, Elliott Pollack, Esq and Lorraine Johnson, JD are working diligently to represent my case in such a way that I will be able to continue treating children with Lyme Disease. However, the expense for my attorneys has been formidable, and my Legal Defense Fund is nearly depleted.
I NEED YOUR MONETARY SUPPORT NOW in order to continue to fight this battle and win. At this time, I need to raise $50,000, which would carry us through two more hearings and hopefully the situation will end at that point.
Please help me fight this battle by donating money to my Legal Defense Fund. I have appointed George Heath III as the guardian of my Fund and ALL checks from this point forward are to be sent directly to him. Checks are to be written as follows:
Charles Ray Jones, MD Legal Defense Fund c/o George Heath III 26 Fairlawn Drive Wallingford, CT 06492 (in the check memo field please place the word "gift")
I sincerely appreciate all of your efforts to help me in this time of need and we all need to continue to contribute in order for there to be a successful outcome which allows me to continue treating children with Lyme Disease and coinfections.
This is my calling and I intend on continuing to service these children, but I NEED YOUR HELP!!!
Sincerely,
Charles Ray Jones, MD
P.S. Please distribute this letter through internet communication.

Excellent idea, Ellen!

I sent the below letter from me/Dr. Jones to the Detroit newspaper in relationship to the article last week on this 16 year old LYME child, Cameron Holloway.
Felt it would be a great way to expand on Cameron's story about CHILDREN'S LLMD's; such as Dr. Jones. I felt...work on the reader's hearts and POCKET BOOKS $$!
7-22-06, Detroit Newspaper article
Great lyme disease article on Cameron Holloway . You did an excellent job getting things right. I was so glad you included also the wonderful, accurate lyme disease web site at the end!
When I read Cameron's touching story, I couldn't help but think of his/other children's LLMD, lyme literate MD, and wish to share the following TRUE experience and letter with you, the readers.
If you were as touched in your hearts as I was, please consider sending money for Dr. Charles Ray Jones, a Conn. LLMD, good- lyme-literate MD who has treated 10,000 LYME children!
If you were touched, please read the letter below asking for funds go to Dr. Jones' so he may continue teaching lyme disease children. Dr. Jones is one a HANDUL of good LLMD, Please help him continue treating your/our lyme disease children. Donations are NOT tax deductible.
Dr. Jones treats ONLY LYME CHILDREN from all over the USA and Canada.
``Dear Valued Patients and Friends;
As you know, I am under investigation by the Connecticut Medical Examining Board for the long-term treatment of Lyme Disease and confections in two siblings that resided outside of Connecticut. Three hearings have already taken place regarding this case, and I am very optimistic and confident about the two to follow in September 2006.
My attorneys, Elliott Police, Esq. and Lorraine Johnson, JD are working diligently to represent my case in such a way that I will be able to continue treating children with Lyme Disease. However, the expense for my attorneys has been formidable, and my Legal Defense Fund is nearly depleted.

Bettyg I'm copying this to the 4 sections Dr. Jones posted this in to give others IDEAS of writing this newspaper.
Look in GENERAL for CONCERNED MOTHER'S post about her/son's live interview with media!
I want to update you on my current legal situation, as my hearings continue into the Fall, and matters have become more tedious and time consuming. There have been several recent developments in the Connecticut Medical Examining Boards' case against me, which has required considerable time and expense for both my Legal Defense Counsel and for myself. For this reason, I am asking for your help again now, by continuing to make contributions to my Legal Defense Fund.
I am confident in my attorneys and optimistic about the outcome of my case, however, continued perseverance is required at this time in preparation for my 4th hearing with the Connecticut Medical Examining Board scheduled to take place on Thursday, September 7, 2006 at the Legislative Office Building in Hartford, CT at 9:00a.m. in Room 1E. If you find the time in your schedule to attend my hearing, your support would be much appreciated on my behalf.
I continue to maintain a strong commitment to the delivery of long term antibiotic treatment for children with Lyme disease and coinfections, as Lyme disease remains a rising global epidemic, and proper and timely health care for children is of paramount importance, but I NEED YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT. Please donate what you can to the:
Charles Ray Jones, MD Legal Defense Fund c/o George Heath III 26 Fairlawn Drive Wallingford, CT 06492
(please place the word "gift" in the check memo field)
I genuinely want to thank all of you who have helped me in the various ways to step forward and stand strong during this difficult time for all of us.
Sincerely, Charles Ray Jones, MD
