Another late stage neurological Lyme patient needs funds for medicine. Canada is as nearly as bad as the UK; people there also have to look for doctors in another country (the USA) and pay privately too.

About This Page
Hello my name is Luba and I live in Toronto Canada. I have had Lyme Disease for well over 10 years now, but had been misdiagnosed for almost all of that time. Recently diagnosed I now need to fight to get well, to get treatment and get my life back. I have been homebound for years and the worst of it being the last few. I was young healthy strong, vibrant before, a hard worker and volunteer. Canada does not recognize my disease and the doctors who have tried to treat us here have received penalty for doing so therefore they are no more.
My only hope is to try to get to the United States to see a specialist who knows what they are doing. I am in late stage chronic neurological lyme. I am so very ill, I can barely move around our small home from room to room now. My issues are neurological, muscle weakness, trouble swallowing/talking/walking , severe dizziness and lack of coordination, breathing problems and migraine type headaches and pressure that last weeks or months at a time. I also have problems with my bladder my bowels and I have severe sensory involvement. Therefore I have to stay in a dark quiet scent free environment 24 hours a day. It truly is torture.
Unfortunately two years ago my father passed away, and just prior to his death he was taken by a professional con-artist woman. She stole nearly $200,000 from our family and fled the country with all the funds, plus more. She was never criminally charged by police and our family has to now pay all of this money back to the bank or we lose our home . Otherwise , we could have remortgaged the house for my treatment. I want to get well to pay all of this off for my mom who takes care of me, she's now 75 years old and I need to do this for her as much as for me.
In supporting me, I guarantee you I will use my funds to help me get well, and for some medical aids or devices I need like a bath chair/walker and such. The rest will go to medications and treatment for my illness. I want to be well again and I need to get well to help others. I thank you for reading my story and I appreciate from my heart any offerings of assistance. If you too are struggling in life, please hold on and never give up hope. Stay focused on bringing positive things to you and they will come, in time and the right way. We must always believe! Have hope, have life, have love for life !
