Re:Looking to plan a Lyme parents' gathering

[Guest guest]

Diane,

Our daughter missed most of tenth grade. She struggled through 11th and 12th.

We didn't know she had Lyme then. Now she is withdrawing from her second

semester in college because she can't understand what they're talking about.

Tell your husband to be thankful your daughter has a diagnosis now and to use

this time for her to get better. Don't let her struggle on in school.

My daughter told me today she is going to ask her LLMD for a portacath on

Monday. Eighteen years old and a portacath is on her wish list.

I know I got off topic re: the Lyme parents' gathering. Sorry, but just wanted

to let Diane know I feel her pain.

I am the one who got off the subject and I am sorry .... thank you for your

reply....she cried and told her father that it wasn't her fault she couldn't

make it to school...like this disease is a choice...bless your daughter and I

otay she gets her wish..my oldest might have to get one also soon....its so hard

for these kids...they should never have to feel bad that they are sick....breaks

my heart because she loves school....I am in treatment myself so we have no

choice but to stay.....your kind words helped more then you know..... Diane
