(brother of director, Derick Martini). He reveals to her his personal real life inspiration for the movie on why the film was made.

I had to ask him why exactly did he do a movie with a character who has Lyme Disease and he told me that his high school girlfriend's dad had Lyme Disease and committed suicide."

Fields says, "It obviously left a huge impression on him. It's a personal story and that's why it's so good. I give the Lymelife movie big thumbs up.
