They share what motivated them to start the foundation, their hope for the future, and how they can help families of children battling Lyme Disease. Two families started LymeLight Foundation with children diagnosed with Lyme disease. Through their children's struggles, both families discovered the incredible expense of battling Lyme disease and the inability of many families to afford proper treatment.
