Thank you to our friend from Iowa, Amber Evans, for sharing their family's story battling the effects of Chronic Lyme Disease on their daughter Olivia...
"Olivia Evans, 15, became sick last summer. She isn't sure when she became infected, but now she has chronic lyme disease."
"Often she doesn’t have the energy to go to school or hang out with friends. “I’ll see people walking along the sidewalk, and it’s just like, you don’t really know how much of a privilege that is,” Olivia explained. Olivia has joint pain, gets tired easily, has heart dysrhythmias and can also have trouble with her speech among other symptoms. She often has episodes at night that leave her in terrible pain."
