Here is a notice I just received and pass along to you:
Dr. Jones Update- Monday, April 5, 2010
Dr. Charles R. Jones is facing an immediate and overwhelming financial
burden due to fines and costly sanctions placed on him by the Connecticut
Medical Examining Board. What we are sadly witnessing is the persecution of
a Lyme-treating doctor for his successful approach in fighting this complex
and controversial disease that very few in the medical field will adequately
address.
FROM THE OFFICE OF DR. JONES AND HIS DEDICATED STAFF- We extend a special
thank you to all and want you to know we continue to do all we can to be
here for you and the children. Dr. Jones has been fighting very hard to
keep going. Now he needs your support, each and everyone of you! If you
could take one minute every day to help him we would be grateful!
UPDATE FROM GOVERNOR’S OFFICE- The Governor’s office stated today that Dr.
Charles Ray Jones situation isn’t something the Governor “typically” looks
into, however, with your continuing efforts we may be able to encourage her
to take a closer look at the repeated targeting and prosecution of Dr.
Jones. It’s up to you to make this happen!
ONGOING ACTIONS- Please continue contacting Governor Rell every day until
she takes steps to stop the ongoing actions against Dr. Jones. Parents and
children who are visiting Dr. Jones office are writing notes and drawing
pictures to encourage the Governor to help them. They need your help.

HOW TO DONATE TO THE LEGAL DEFENSE FUND: There is no doubt Lyme Disease has
drained us financially. Many of us have had to refinance homes, exhaust
college and retirement funds and borrow from family and friends. It is with
sensitivity to this reality that we are asking you to join us in
contributing to this effort in what ever way you can. The deadline for
paying the $10,000.00 fine is approaching fast (April 15, 2010) and there
are mounting legal fees that need to be paid to keep Dr. Jones legal defense
intact.
To donate- write “Penalty or Gift” in the memo field of your checks.
