Hi everyone,

My name is Stanley Passaretta, and I’m a proud U.S. Marine Corps combat veteran. I’ve always believed in pushing through pain and challenges — but this year, life gave me one I can’t fight alone.

In March 2025, I was in a serious accident that shattered my pelvis, knee, and ankle. After multiple surgeries and a long, difficult recovery, I developed a condition called Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) — often described as one of the most painful chronic conditions known.

Every day since has been a battle. I’ve gone through every treatment that insurance covers — physical therapy, medications, and countless appointments — but the pain remains relentless. My doctors have recommended ketamine infusions, which are considered the gold-standard treatment for CRPS. Unfortunately, insurance won’t cover this procedure.

The initial round of treatment costs $3,000, and continued care runs about $1,000 a month afterward. I’m hoping to raise $7,000 to cover the cost of starting and maintaining this life-changing therapy.

This treatment represents hope — a chance to reduce the constant pain, regain mobility, and start living again rather than just enduring each day.

If you can, please consider donating or sharing this campaign. Every bit of support helps me get one step closer to reclaiming my life and independence.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart — for your kindness, your generosity, and for believing in my recovery.

Semper Fi, and God Bless

Stanley Passaretta
