John Caudwell and his whole family are diagnosed with the Lyme disease

Earlier this month John Caudwell told the Telegraph of his 20-year-old son Rufus's long struggle with the disease, which started with "panic attacks, serious agoraphobia and a terror of sickness" before being correctly diagnosed in February. Now Mr Caudwell has admitted that he, his former wife, Kate McFarlane, and their two daughters, Rebekah, 35, and Rhiannon, 27, have all tested positive for Lyme disease as well. Lyme disease is a bacterial infection that can spread to humans through ticks. There are around 2,000 to 3,000 new cases in England and Wales every year. (Telegraph)
