April 16, 2010 - Dr. Jones Update
April 15 was not just tax day - it was the deadline for paying the $10,000.00 fine imposed on Dr. Jones for making children better. Thanks to your donations the goal was reached and the money was placed in an escrow account, pending the outcome of an appeal. Dr. Jones can continue to care for the children and will not be further punished for not paying the fine! Dr. Jones said he is truly humbled by the generosity you have shown to date and his spirits have been greatly lifted by your kindness. Read More =>
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.
