Hello everyone,

 

As many of you know, our friend Sarah has been struggling with terrible migraines for over a year now. What used to be a manageable neurological disease has turned into a daily nightmare that affects her with extreme pain, nausea, stroke like symptoms and frequent hospital stays to control the pain. The physical anguish is exacerbated by the many nights away without her amazing husband and beautiful children.

 

She has a great care team at UCLA Santa Monica, but even the neurologists, primary care team, sleep specialist and many others, have come to the end of what they have to offer in treatment and relief.

 

Nevertheless, there is hope.

 

After having some success with ketamine treatments (both IV infusions and at home nasal spray) we have found a 2 week intensive treatment that has had remarkable results for other pain patients.

There are no cures for a migraineur, only treatments, and this one sounds very promising.

 

We’re asking for help in the form of cash donations or Marriott rewards points https://help.marriott.com/s/article/Article-22159. (One must call Marriott directly to donate rewards points to account number contact me for number )

 

Maggie (Sarah’s oldest child) will accompany Sarah to serve as her caregiver both before, during and after the 4 hour infusions as well as be her travel companion.

 

Sarah would like to thank you all for the support, food, sweet texts, rides for the kids and most of all being just great humans.

 

Thanks Friends!!!

Robin!
