Help Jose fight ALS

Donation protected

Hi, my name is Jose Esquivel, and I’ve been living with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease) for the past seven years.
This diagnosis turned my world upside down. As the disease progressed, so did the losses, my mobility, my independence, and little by little, the parts of life many people take for granted. But I’ve never stopped fighting. I’ve researched, tried treatments, stayed hopeful, always holding onto the belief that something better could be around the corner.
Now, I finally have that chance.
Through extensive research, I discovered MSC Exosomes, a groundbreaking treatment derived from stem cells. These tiny particles are uniquely capable of crossing the brain-blood barrier and have shown promising potential in reversing the damage caused by ALS.
Unfortunately, I found out about this treatment after the clinical trial window had closed. But there’s still hope, it’s available to patients like me on a cash-only basis.
The cost, $6,000 per vial, and based on my current condition, I’ll need 12 vials for a full course of treatment. That’s $72,000, a number far beyond what I can afford alone.
I believe in this treatment. I believe in the progress that’s been made. And most of all, I believe that with your support, I can get there. Every donation, big or small, brings me one step closer to regaining function, mobility, and the simple joys of life that ALS has tried to take from me. I know times are hard for everyone, and asking for support is never easy. But if you’re able to donate, even just a few dollars, you’ll be part of something life-changing. And if donating isn’t possible, simply sharing my story would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve spent years learning to live with ALS. Now, I’m asking for the chance to fight for a future beyond it.
Thank you for reading, thank you for caring, and thank you for believing in second chances.
With deep gratitude,
Jose Esquivel
