Sally's parents, Lisa and Ralph Jordan, said doctors told her family everything Sally didn't have, but never provided a diagnosis. They spent tens of thousands of dollars and drove hundreds of miles to meet with around 30 specialists.
"The last doctor told her she was crazy and it was all in her head and she needed to volunteer at a soup kitchen to make herself feel better," said Lisa Jordan.
It wasn't until the Jordan family made the five hour trip to New Haven, Connecticut that they finally received some long awaited answers. Eighty-five-year-old Lyme-treating pediatrician Dr. Charles Ray Jones diagnosed Sally with post-Lyme disease, a diagnosis that means she has lingering symptoms of Lyme Disease.
