Cell Therapy For Eric

Donation protected
Dear friends and supporters my 17 year old son Eric was diagnosed  at 5 years  old with a terminal  illness call Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. This causes the degeneration of his muscles and his ability  to walk .  doctors  said all I can do is take Eric home and give him the best life because he will not survive past his 20s , i struggle everyday to understant and make light of Erics condition  i refuse to give up on Eric and will do everything I can to give Eric a good quality if life , after his diagnosis he began falling down often and not being able to go upstairs without help, Eric starten having a hard time getting up and lifting his arms , At age 7 Eric completely lost his ability to walk and has been in a wheelchair since then ,  his motor skills are limited and  he  He is unable to lift his arm to reach for things, and is unable to turn on his own while in bed which makes it hard for him to sleep well due to the atrophy in his legs and spine , ultimatly causing him to develop scoliosis of the spine .  This disease slowly depletes the persons ability do do anything ,its basically like being paralised, although there is no cure , there is hope in stem cell therapy  that can help him regain some strength and hopefully extend his life , giving him a better quality of life, i believe these treatments are a miracle and will be a blessing for Eric to receive ,they are very costly, and Eric needs  all the support he can get,  please if you can donate every bit helps get us closer to getting these treatments ,Eric is a fighter and never gives up and I will keep fighting for him!   Its very painful to see my son suffer ,  I always thaught if i focus too much on his illness it would make it wose ,but after finding out about cell therapy and seeing so many boys improving ,i feel have no choice ,this could be the cure! Please if you cant donate  share, Thank you for taking the time to read this and sharing in our journey. God bless !  #hopeforeric #endduchenne Erics facebook  https://www.facebook.com/eric.angel.90813
