Can someone please give me hope?

[Guest guest]

My young children (age 2 and 3) got Lyme, Ehlichia and Babesia this past summer

('08) in

New York. They have been on antibiotics for the Lyme since Oct. 20th. I am going

to begin

mepron or something else to treat the co-infections this week assuming I can

find a doc. I

am writing because I am entirely overwhelmed and depressed by everything I am

reading on

the web and am hoping someone who caught Lyme and co-infections relatively early

and

met with success can write me. My kids were being treated (at least for the

Lyme) within 3-5

months of the tick bite. I need to know that there is a good chance that we will

not necessarily be looking at a lifetime or a minimum or many years of

disability and severe

illness. Well, if it is true that is. I am also going to post to ask parents for

feedback about

using Mepron on such young kids, but if you have that info and can help me

decide what to

do that would be great. It certainly seems that it is riskier to do nothing to

treat the co-

infections than to take the risk of using Mepron.

Thank you so much for any help you can give.
