Bernadette Saddik is a student at Santa Clara University double majoring in Mechanical and Bioengineering. She was diagnosed with Chronic Lyme Disease and co-infections in August 2012. She can be seen on the Santa Clara University campus with an IV bag, but is determined not to let the debilitating symptoms of her chronic illness commandeer her life.
