Help Rafi Shiwa Walk Again

Donation protected
Dear reader,
My name is Rafi. I am 39 years old; married, and father to a 4 year old girl. I had a beautiful life, until on one unfortunate day on Oct 3rd, 2014, I slipped and fell while trying to get out of bed and sadly broke my neckbone and injured my spinal cord. The incident left me paralyzed below my neck and I have been living this way since 2014.
There are no therapies for my level/severity of spinal cord injury in Canada, but outside of Canada, Stem Cell therapy and Epidural Stimulation promise improved function but costs $120,000 CAD.  Since 2014, we have raised $80,000 with great difficulty. I cordially thank them. My doctors tell me that I need this surgery ASAP and that I need to do it in the next few months. I am short of $40,000 CAD right now and  I am in huge need of your generous help to get this treatment and hopefully my life back. No amount is small! Every dollar counts...
