For Love of Amy MS Stem Cell

Hi, This is Sandy, and I am raising money for my niece Amy Gaudet who has Primary Progressive MS, which is the worst kind. The outlook in a few years is a wheelchair or bed. They have exhausted all medical treatments in the US.

Her story breaks my heart.

Diagnosed in February 2021,

Since then, because of aggressive & steady progression, the diagnosis has been changed to primary Progressive MS. The most severe MS.

Walking with a cane. Using a rollator and will be using a wheelchair for distance.

Trials are going on in the US. However, they can’t qualify because they are not accepting primary progressive patients.

Given the speed and level of disability, there is no time to spare in getting a stem cell transplant.

The challenge is raising the money in a short time to stop ms before the disability worsens

Amy must go to Mexico to the clinic as soon as possible, sometime in March.

Treatment will consist of four rounds of chemotherapy

Harvesting her stem cells to be re-introduced later will reset and grow a new immune system To halt MS with a potential improvement.

Clinica Ruiz is the name of the clinic

Doctor Ruiz Argüelles (Dr. Ruiz)

Will be her doctor in Puebla

Mexico
