I am raising funds for my son Sebastian to be able to pay for a much needed MRI that he has had to postpone for the past 6 months because of the cost. He has had such a tough year of health issues, and that's saying something for him. He experienced a serious relapse in Multiple Sclerosis symptoms last year, resulting in vision loss, difficulty walking, and difficulty eating, not to mention the severe fatigue and depression that comes with a relapse (and MS in general). He is getting great care here in Maryland, and he has started to feel better and more hopeful. The current challenge we are facing is a high deductible with our insurance plan and a much-needed MRI so his neurologist can determine if his medications are working and if there is any disease progression since last year.

Thank you for reading and considering a donation. It's a real challenge to ask for help, but we are at a point where it seems wrong to keep making Sebastian postpone this MRI. It causes a lot of stress and anxiety to not know the status of his condition. Additionally, I am setting the goal $1k higher than the MRI to help Sebastian and his wife Jasmine to have a security deposit on an apartment of their own, since Sebastian has not been able to work, and his Social Security Disability application is still in process. Sebastian is such a sweet and intelligent person, and he deserves to be able to fully engage in life, discover what he wants to do, and enjoy himself without this cloud of worry hanging over his head. Thank you for being part of our village.
