Caleb suffered a febrile seizure on September 8, 2012, during emergency room treatment Caleb stopped breathing. Caleb was intubated but the doctor couldn't initiate air exchange, and Caleb was without oxygen and flat-lined for over 11 minutes. Caleb suffered devastating brain damage and wasn't expected to live. Caleb however isn't a quitter and continues to battle back. When he was discharged from the hospital, we were told that Caleb would never be aware of us, and he would be vegetative at best during the brief time we had left with him. Caleb however, is responding to therapy, and lets us know when he is unhappy. He has actually begun turning toward us when we speak to him, and has been tracking movements. At this time we are incorporating acupuncture, hyperbarics, and MNRI. We are out of funds to continue the therapies, these are necessary for continued recovery. We would like to continue the therapies above, and we would like to incorporate stem cell therapy, which has shown tremendous potential for helping recovery from brain damage. Caleb is always amenable to the therapies, and his therapists are his biggest cheerleaders. COULD YOU HELP? Any funds will help, Caleb's mom had to leave her job to care for him. He has been a tremendous blessing to his family, and has shown a tremendous willingness and ability to overcome. If you aren't able to help financially, you could pass this info to someone who would be able to help, also keep Caleb in your thoughts and prayers.
