Hi, my name is Milica Sarah,

 

I am 37 years old graphic designer and I’ve always prided myself on being active, working hard, and staying busy. But since 2019 my health has taken a dramatic downturn, and it's been getting worse. 

​

Four years ago, I discovered I have Lyme disease, a condition that has slowly taken control of my life and left me unable to work, care for myself properly, or live the way I used to. 

​

At first, I thought it was just exhaustion. I was constantly tired, my joints ached, and my memory began to slip. But the symptoms worsened. Lyme disease affected my muscles, heart, and even my brain. Tasks that used to be routine—like going to work, shopping for groceries, cooking, reading a book, or even taking a walk—became overwhelming and very often impossible to do. The disease left me bedridden for weeks and months at a time, robbing me of my independence and hope for recovery. 

​

It made me extremely sensitive to mold and chemicals, and even a whiff of regular dryer sheets throws my body into spiral and makes me feel extremely unwell. The list of issues I’m dealing with is growing, it’s not just Lyme, but CIRS, MCAS, MCS, POTS, Fibromyalgia, EDS, etc.

​

For the last five years, I’ve been in and out of countless doctor’s offices, ER visits, I’ve tried many different things, bio-hacks, antibiotics, IV’s, herbal tinctures, acupuncture, physical therapy - you name it. But none of it has really had long lasting effects. 

​

I had to stop working, which has made it impossible to cover the costs of my ongoing treatments. It’s been tough physically,  emotionally and financially, but I don’t want to give up hope.

​

Recently, I learned about a specialized Lyme disease clinic that offers cutting-edge treatment, a combination of intensive care and therapy specifically designed for chronic Lyme patients like me. Patients have reported incredible results, reclaiming their lives after years of suffering. This treatment represents my best chance to heal and get my life back. The clinic is very expensive and I simply can’t afford it on my own, and that’s why I’m trying to be brave and ask for your help.

​

I have never done such a thing, and it’s extremely hard for me to ask for this type of help, it’s uncomfortable and it just feels weird. But I don’t feel like I have much choice at this point, so here I am. 

​

Your support can give me the opportunity to access the treatment that could change my life. I dream of a day where I can go back to work, be able to visit my family overseas, and enjoy the little things in life again, like going to a concert or being able to workout. I want to beat this disease and reclaim my life and my future, and with your help, I believe I can.

​

Every donation, no matter how small, brings me one step closer to healing. 

​

Thank You sooo much for considering helping me on this journey back to health!

​

Sincerely, 

Milica Sarah
