This Christmas, Ivory Lane is hosting a fundraiser to raise money for the Gray Family. Here is their testimonial and why we are hoping to raise funds to help with testing, therapies and eventual treatment for sweet Emma ❤️ we will be posting several ways to help with this fundraiser this week! If you know any businesses willing to donate for a raffle, please contact us ❤️
My daughter has been fighting battles no child should ever have to face. What started as small symptoms slowly turned into a storm of medical issues—neurological symptoms, sudden behavior changes, and constant infections. We now know she is dealing with PANS/PANDAS and possible Lyme disease conditions that attack the brain and immune system and can change a child overnight.
These illnesses are real, aggressive, and incredibly expensive to treat. Insurance doesn’t cover many of the tests, specialists, therapies, or treatments she needs. We’re doing everything we can as parents, but the cost of care is overwhelming:
What her treatment requires:
• Specialist visits with Lyme-literate and functional medicine doctors. her doctor won’t treat until we have a confirmed diagnosis
• Advanced testing ( Lyme panels, co-infection panels)
• Medications, supplements, and herbal protocols
• possibly IV/IG therapy and immune support
• Travel costs for appointments far from home
• Continual monitoring and follow-up care
Every day is a fight for her health, her personality, and her future. Some days she struggles to control her emotions, her body, and her ability to function—things most kids never think twice about. Watching your child suffer and not being able to fix it instantly is a kind of heartbreak I can’t describe.
But we’re not giving up. She is strong, bright, funny, and so full of life. She deserves the chance to heal, to feel safe in her own body again, and to grow up without these battles weighing her down.
Why we’re asking for help:
We simply cannot do this alone. Every donation—no matter how small—goes directly toward her medical care and gives her a chance at a healthier, happier future.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading, for caring, and for standing with us. Your support means more than you’ll ever know!
