76 yr old Mom needs help gofundme.com/76-yr-old-mom-…
I waa bitten by a tick in 2011 & not treated for 11 mos.
Went to the Mayo Clinic-found Coxsackie B4 virus (a cousin of polio) which left me w/out most use of L side (L handed 😪).
I caught Vanc-resistant C. Difficile, had 2 FM transplants & need RX @$198/mo just to digest food.

Drs back in Louisville eventually discovered tick bacteria (E. Chaffeensis, Rickettsia of unknown etiology, & #Lyme-Dxd 1 yr later). All went to spinal fluid & brain.
Have had 8 spinal taps.
3.5 yr C. Diff/2 FM transplants left me unable to digest food w/out enteral RX @$198/mo.

Please help us. My now 77-year-old mom is my caregiver. She's an RN & worked until she was 75.
I have to order June's RX @$198.
We get $15/mo for food + trying to save home.
Never thought we would have to beg for help on Twitter-it's embarrassing.💔

Here's some food one of our friends sent us but it's been over 1.5 yrs now.
Bc my intestines are so damaged, I'm on Stanford's FODMAP diet.
Get $15/mo for food.
Went to food pantries but it's all white rice + beans: I can't eat any of it.
