Show Notes

In this week's episode of Lyme and Beyond with Tanya, Michelle Scavone shares the hearthbreaking story of losing her husband to complications of Lyme Disease. An experience that changed the course of her life. While this isn't the typical hopeful episode, it serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of timely diagnosis and treatments, and how quicky things can escalate - reflecting a reality so many families face. Through her own battles with Lyme and the grief that followed, Michelle found a new calling: advocacy. She now proudly serves as a board member of the Northeast Lyme and Associated Diseases Resource Foundation (NELAD), using her voice to bring awareness, education, and financial support to others navigating this disease. Her story is a testament to how purpose can rise from pain, and how even in the loss, hope can still be created and shared.
