My name is Maura and I am 16 years old. I was diagnosed almost 2 years ago with Late Stage Lyme disease.  Lyme disease has affected me neurologically, physically, and emotionally. It has challenged my life in so many ways. I have had to learn to live very differently than before and to pace myself every day. Learning to adjust and getting used to a new lifestyle has been difficult, but I have learned a lot about myself in the process. 

With this event, I want to raise money to help others pay for treatment, offer support, and help other Lyme patients (especially teens) know they are NOT alone in this fight! 

If I raise,

$50 I will paint my dad's fingernails Lyme green

$100 I will dye my horse's hair Lyme green with Manic Panic hair color

$200 I will let my mom do my makeup while she's blindfolded

$300 I will wear pajamas and slippers to school

$500 My whole cross country team will silly string our coach with Lyme green string

$600 I will run/walk 10 miles

$1000 My little sister has agreed to perform a song she wrote
