Help Jonathon get TMS therapy!

Donation protected

My name is Sarah Atkins and Jonathon Grace is my sweet boyfriend.  For several years he has struggled with mental illness, specifically OCD.  The OCD causes him to have debilitating intrusive thoughts on a daily basis.  He has tried multiple therapies and medications, but still needs more intervention.  There is a therapy called Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) that he has wanted to do for some time, but it is not available in TN for the specific treatment of OCD.  Recently, he decided he would do anything to get better even if it meant going away to get treatment.  We found a clinic in St. Louis/Creve Cour, MO.  After consultation with his doctors at Vanderbilt and the doctor in MO, he was approved for the treatment.  We are very excited he was approved, but it is going to be a huge financial burden to make it all happen.  The TMS therapy alone will cost $6600.00 and then he will need a hotel for 6 weeks.  Considering the cost of gas to travel back home to see his son on the weekends, along with hotel lodging and food during the week, it will cost approximately $10,000.00 total.   Jonathon will also be unable to work as normal during the six weeks.  Therefore, I am requesting you pray and donate as you feel led.  If you are financially unable to give we would still love your prayers for safe travel and positive treatment. Thank you so much!
