Help Peggy fight her MND diagnosis.

Hi, My name is Ty, I am Peggy Hooper's brother in law.

Recently Peggy has been hit with the tough news that the symptoms she has been experiencing for a while are in fact Motor Neurone Disease (MND). MND affects the nerves known as motor neurones. If MND is diagnosed, it means movement will be affected and patients are likely to get a wide range of symptoms.

Overall, Peggy is doing Ok and keeping as upbeat as she can. It's been a whirlwind period with tests and appointments and research and planning.

They are remaining as upbeat as possible and plan to fight the diagnosis. A friend of Kane's in the medical field said that 98% of patients, when diagnosed, just give up. He was very clear that this is the wrong approach. He has seen plenty of amazing recoveries in all sort of illnesses and he recalls that the main common denominator was the patients who recovered (cancer, tumors, MND etc) threw everything they could at the issue. He stated emphatically that accepting the diagnosis was a sure fire way to die, but instead to fight it with everything.

The Plan

Kane has used his AI skills to locate a neurologist at Duke University who has been medically confirming cases of MND reversal for the past 6 years. So far he has fully confirmed 50 or so reversals. A reversal is confirmed if the individual had clear initial testing confirming MND and the individual has recovered to 90%+ of previous function.

From here Kane found the organisation which has been responsible for brining about many of these reversals. It is a not for profit known as Healing ALS. The founders went around and interviewed over 60 reversals and from that found the common elements in their healing. If you are interested you can go to this page which provides some of their stories: https://healingals.org/als-reversals/

Some of these individuals were unable to walk, breath without equipment, eat without feeding tubes and now are living independent lives. One in particular is Steve Shackle who is based in Australia and was diagnosed 30 years ago. Peggy and Kane have been meeting some of these individuals each Friday morning in global Zoom meetings. It is actually quite inspiring.

Out of all of this, they created a 47 step protocol that is very successful in slowing, stopping and in some cases reversing MND (in the US it is referred to as ALS).

After some further investigation and research, Peggy and Kane have thrown themselves into this program with gusto and optimism.

How You Can Help

The family are looking for donations to cover Peggy's treatments over the next few years. They estimate costs to be around $30,000pa. They are planning at throwing everything at this which will include a wide range of treatments that are not covered by Medicare.

Their goal is recovery and for Peg to thrive into the future. All the funds raised will be used purely for Peggy's' medical expenses.

In lieu of a donation, sharing this fundraiser on your social media accounts would be greatly appreciated.
