Help Give Josh his Hand Back

Josh was involved in a motor vehicle accident three days after Christmas of 2017. The trauma he sustain resulted in a massive stroke. He lost complete ability to use his left hand amongst many other things.

Now, Josh has the opportunity to get some function back of his left hand with a device ViviStem. It is transplanted into his chest and neck and with therapy it will stimulate the vagus nerve. Doing so will create new pathways, retrain his brain to use his left hand again. How much function he will get back is not known, but there is the possibility of getting nearly full use of his hand back.

We are asking for donations to help with our move to New York City, cost of living there, and for any medical expenses. We will have to stay in New York City for the procedure, 1-2 weeks of recovery, and then 6 weeks of outpatient therapy. So we are looking at 2 months of living there.

We greatly appreciate your time in reading this and any donation and/or prayers for us. Bless you.
