Lyme Disease Stole a Decade of My Life - Dealing with an Emergency - Please Help?

I am 27 and my Lyme Disease went misdiagnosed and untreated from the time I was a teen up until just recently. I had to drop out of school, lost countless jobs, went through thousands of my own dollars and through it all, put myself deep in debt and destroyed my credit (almost entirely student loans and medical bills) I recently received treatment and have only just begun to feel semi-normal some days, though I recently suffered a re-emergence of the infection which has set me back some. I'm suffering a bit of a crisis at the moment. My vehicle's engine blew out on me on the way to work last week and if I cannot replace the vehicle soon, I will lose my job and subsequently my home. This is also greatly negatively affecting my relationship with my new boyfriend because of the stress. I need to continue to work so I can work on raising my credit score and regain some semblance of a life. I recently started a gofundme due to the desperation and time-sensitive nature of my predicament. If anyone is able to help (or knows someone who may be able to) in whatever small way - even if it is only advice, information, or the ability to help me network and share my story, I would be unbelievably grateful. Please take 5 mins out of your day if possible to read my story. It's nice just to encounter others who understand, though I would not wish this affliction on my worst enemy. Thank you all for your time, support and compassion. Have a wonderful day and I pray for the health and well-being of us all ❤️

Thank you so much Krissi - I also live 5+ hrs away from all of my family and most of my friends due to an abusove family situation so I have been having to go through most of this alone. My family cannot help - my mother (who I moved to get away from) is chronically homeless (and a severe drug/gambling addict and alcoholic) and my father is severely disabled. Your kind words mean the world right now 💕

Absolutely! My apologies - I have not had the time to read all the guidelines as of yet. Thank you for not deleting my post outright.
