Life changing treatment for MND ALS
Donation protected
Hi everyone,
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
I have created this Go Fund Me to try and raise funds for my brother, Harminder.
He was given the devastating diagnosis of Motor Neuron Disease (MND/ALS) back in July 2021 at the age of only 44yrs old. Since then, it’s been a difficult time for us as a family to even comprehend!
The aim of this page is to raise £50-£60,000 to get him to a clinic based in America (Body Science) for some life changing treatment which specialises in neurodegenerative diseases. Like all things, the treatment isn’t cheap! This is why as a family, we are appealing for your invaluable help.
Let me tell you a bit about Harminder and his journey.
He’s proud, strong minded and a strong willed individual who wears his heart on his sleeve. He’s a loving Dad, Son and Brother and always puts his family and friends first, always putting others before himself. He met his wife Bal as college sweethearts and have now been married for 20 years with 3 beautiful girls aged 15, 13 and 7, who he loves and adores.
Noticeable Physical symptoms started in 2019 with muscle twitching and cramps. Eventually, in 2021 he was diagnosed with this incurable condition, since then we’ve seen a rapid decline in his capability to carry out simple day to day tasks like you and I. He’s lost strength and grip in both hands, difficulty walking unaided, and has difficulty eating and sleeping due to the constant pain crippling cramps deteriorating his quality of life. The onset of symptoms and not being able to work has also put a financial strain on providing for his family.
Bal has been his rock, as well as working full time, looking after three children she continues to be by his side managing his and her physical & mental health as well as the kids wellbeing is obviously taking its toll, to watch the man she’s loves/we love deteriorate physically is heart breaking.
As there is currently no treatment available in the UK, we as family have sought treatment abroad with a clinic that are specialists in treating ALS and neurodegenerative diseases through cell repair therapy. The treatment requires multiple visits and long-term treatment, all treatment is individualised and will be bespoke for his diagnosis and symptoms.
It is imperative that he gets this help as soon as possible, as deterioration will prevent him from being able to travel abroad to get the treatment he desperately needs. We are hoping to give him some quality of life back to be able to see his children grow up for as long as possible, and this treatment which isn’t offered in the UK, is our only chance
Thank you for taking the time to read this, much love.
