Guillain-Barre syndrome, a rare autoimmune disease
Shane caught this rare syndrome after suffering a severe case of adult chickenpox.
He is now in the hospital WITHOUT THE USE OF HIS LEGS AND MOST OF HIS UPPER BODY.
He has undergone several Plasma Exchange sessions which has stopped the dangerous progression of this syndrome. At this point in time he has little use of his legs and may be some time before he regains full use. He will need daily physical therapy if he hopes recover and join his family.
Shane and his family are in need of funds to help with expenses until he can resume his place in the workforce. The amount is an estimate, as no one knows how long the therapy will take and how much use he will even regain. The family really needs dad back in good shape, playing and working.
He will begin his acute therapy this week (12/04/19)and then he needs to find a handicapped friendly house/apartment for himself and family, as his current living conditions are fairly rural and cannot be navigated with a walker and wheelchair.
ANY AMOUNT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Approximately one out of every 100,000 per individuals per year will be affected by a condition known as Guillain-Barre syndrome, a rare autoimmune disease that involves muscle weakness, fatigue, and respiratory issues. It can even lead to paralysis. Although this disorder is rare, Guillain-Barre syndrome is an autoimmune disease individuals should be aware of, to further help raise awareness and to offer comfort and support to those battling this illness.
Shanes family includes the mother of his children Misty Lujan and the two beautiful grandchildren Juniper and Maverick. Misty will be handling the funds as well as the children during this recovery period, Thank you Misty
