Both my adult son (born in 1986) and I are living through Late Lyme Disease and Co-infections.
We suspect my son contracted Lyme in early childhood while on a camping trip through New York State on route to the Jersey Shore in 1990. If not then for certain when he presented a bulls eye shaped rash in 2003.
I picked up Lyme while camping at Long Point Provincial Park on the north shore of Lake Erie, July 2002.
Long term illness of any type is enough of a challenge to begin with let alone without enough support.
"Lyme Love" was created to support and educate about Lyme and vector borne illnesses.
