Fundraiser for Mark G. Dinis
Donation protected
We are asking for everyone to pray first, but please help out my cousin, Mark Dinis. As some of you may know, Mark has been out of work for over a year. Mark has always been a very active person and hard worker since the age of 16. Over the past year, he has been in and out of doctors offices due to his extreme pain, weakened condition, balance and coordination issues. After a few wrong answers, and some guesses, we finally received the devastating truth at Mass General Hospital. Mark was diagnosed with Multiple System Atrophy (also called MSA). He was also diagnosed with spondylosis of the spine. MSA is a rare neurodegenerative disorder affecting our bodies involuntary functions such as blood pressure, breathing, and motor control. The brain is essentially dying off. It is aggressive with no cure. Prognosis is 8-10 years but with your help and prayers we can help him win this fight! We are asking for donations to help Mark with everyday expenses and for planning for his future medical needs such as a wheelchair accessible van. Any donations small or large will help. Please share this page. Thank you in advance to everyone that helps. May God bless you in return for your help!
