A young girl’s remarkable Lyme journey
Lyme Disease is a debilitating illness. Olivia Goodreau’s account of her life struggling with a mystery illness at the age of 7 is heart breaking. She saw over 50 Doctors in one year and they didn’t diagnose her. Her description of her campaign to raise awareness about Lyme with politicians whilst at school is commendable. I am full of admiration for Olivia and her family’s perseverance and eventual success, in spite of the terrible bullying she experienced at school. If you’ve never heard of Lyme Disease please read this book - and if you have heard of it you will still learn a lot. In her short life Olivia has made an enormous difference to Lyme sufferers through her LivLymeFoundation which funds treatment for children. As she says, hopefully in 10 years time there will be a cure and her work will then be done.
