Despite an ongoing epidemic in the U.S., late stage Lyme disease is not recognized as a condition by the Center for Disease Control (CDC), so little to none of the complex treatments – which can cost $1,000 a week – is covered by insurance; with Nicole unable to work, this family still NEEDS HELP. The St. Georg Klinik in Germany, which her doctors find promising, alone is a whopping $35,000 for the three-week program.
