MAs Spinal Stimulator Surgury

Hello, my name is Reed Taylor and I am here today raising money to help support my moms upcoming Spinal surgery and associated medical bills and various expenses.

My mom, Maryann, has underwent numerous neck and spine surgeries in the last 4 decades and has spent the majority of her life disabled, and in varying amount of chronic pain that have prevented her from living a full life. After many years of working with a pain management specialists and going thru various medical trials and jumping thru bureaucratic hoops, she has finally been approved for a procedure that has a high likely hood of giving her more independence and mobility back to her life while also reducing her pain to a more manageable level with less reliance on health impacting medications.

My mom is very strong and has always worked hard to be independent however, over the years as her pain levels have spiked she has received varying amounts of help and support, until 2020 when she finally made the decision to move to Portland and move in with me where she could receive more help and support more frequently. Since the move her health an quality of life have continued to decline to a point where she struggles to leave the house and complete basic tasks consistently.

Last year we were introduced to a Neurosurgeon that specializes in the type of medical problems my mom suffers from. He recommended she try a Spinal Stimulator too reduce her pain and helped us get her into a trial. During the trial we saw some amazing results with a pain reduction of 40-60% during normal daily tasks, giving her the ability to have independence back and a better quality of life.

We are excited and hopeful that this surgery will allow her to live a more full life, allowing her to do many things that we take for granted each day, such as grocery shopping for ourselves , cooking or even visiting a park or beach.

Thank you for taking the time to read about Maryanns life and situation and I appreciate all your positive thoughts and support. ❤️
