Cara's Cure for Muscular Dystrophy

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Cara Sharp. I am 31-year old Canadian female, and I have been living with a degenerative disease called FSH Muscular Dystrophy for the past 15 years. Over time, this has significantly limited my mobility and range of motion, making it difficult for me to partake in many everyday activities without support. I have always maintained a positive attitude throughout this illness, and continue to be a driven and ambitious person, using the lessons I have learned and inner strength I have developed to push forward. During my twenties I received a degree in Elementary Education and taught Elementary School for 5 years. In this past year, I have started my own business as a Reiki Energy Healing Pracitioner. I also work as a visual artist and recently self-published my first novel. I have dreams to become a certified Yoga instructor and to pursue dance, and various other forms of physical wellness. Until recently, these seemed like distant dreams, as there was no known treatment for Muscular Dystrophy, and my physical limitations prevent me from fully purusing these goals. After thorough research, I have learned of a miraculous stem cell treatment available in India, which uses stem cells derived from my own bone marrow and fat cells. These stem cells are extracted and then reinjected intramuscularly in a quick and fairly simple procdure. It has been proven 89% effective with little to no side effects as the stem cells used are my own. This treatment could virtually reverse all the damage and progressive weakening I have experienced over these years, meaning that I could once again run, skip, walk, and dance with ease. This is what I have dreamed of for so long, and am eager to receive this amazing treatment. As a new business owner, funds are a little tight and the treatment is out of my current price range. In addition to the flight to India, that actual treatment itself is another $8000 USD. I would use the funds for travel costs and the treatment. Just thinking about this as a possibility fills my heart with immeasurable joy and gratitude. I would like to sincerely thank all those in advance who contribute to my healing journey. I myself am committed to the holistic healing of others, and feel that when my body is at its full potential I will be able to give back to the world at large in an even bigger and more powerful way. My heartfelt thanks to you all! <3
