Story
Jordon needs treatment to help improve her quality of life As she does not have the funds for this I want to help her by crowdfunding. Let's all help get Jordon the treatment she needs for her Lyme Disease therapy, so that she can have quality of life with her partner and children.
Jordon was bitten by a tick whilst doing a school forest walk, and within weeks was in intensive care on iv fluids and since gone down hill, every day is a struggle for her with the tiredness, headaches, nausea, brain fog. She is constantly in pain and in and out of hospital. The NHS say that she comes under the umbrella of a MUS (Medically unexplained Symptoms).
She has tested positive for Lyme Disease, but the UK medical system does not have the knowledge or the will to treat her.
We have been offered a chance to get treatment in Turkey, which with flights treatment and accommodation would be in the region of £1750.00, we are asking you to please instead of getting that normal costa coffee or Starbucks please donate to this cause,
Today is very humbling. We have thought about fundraising for Jordons dibilitating disease, but up until today, we thought we could beat this without help. She has been on antibiotics that have wrecked her system for 14 months. She has been off for a few times, and everything comes back, but worse. She needs to get somewhere where they treat this proactively and outside the norm of the UK stupid medical system. I won't bore everybody with all the medical details of the last two years. The A and E and hospital stays, the misdiagnosis of fibromyalgia and every other autoimmune disorders, yes its' the same story for every other chronic lyme patient we know. Jordon says " I will tell you what the most devastating part of it is, and it's not just the physical pain and horrific brain fog, memory loss, and crushing fatigue. The hardest part is I've lost myself and I am 28 years old".
