After struggling for 10 years, Maddy was finally diagnosed with neurological Lyme disease in 2018. Since her diagnosis, she has struggled with Babesia, Bartonella, Anaplasma, Mycoplasma, dysautonomia, PANDAS, epilepsy, PTSD, and other chronic diseases.

Maddy currently lives in Upstate New York working on her Lyme blog @maddymeetslyme while undergoing treatment.
