Restore Dad's Joy: Fund Stem Cell Treatment
Donation protected
Hello everyone. I’m here to seek some help for my dad. He has degeneration on his right pelvis that has been ruled inoperable by orthopedic doctors. To compound the issue, he has scoliosis in his spine and issues with his right knee as well. What all this means is that without intervention, his future and livelihood are bleak.
As you can imagine, this diagnosis comes as a heavy blow. Right now, he is still actively teaching dance lessons to make a living. The concern right now is how long he will be able to continue doing this. My dad began dancing when I was 4 years old and is still very much an integral part of the West Coast Swing community. The two great joys in his life are dancing and his 3 granddaughters.
The good news is that his orthopedist believes that regenerative therapy will greatly improve his situation. This includes multiple stem cell and PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injections in both his hip and knee.
You can imagine Medicare covers exactly 0% of this treatment. I am asking for your donations and prayers to help us reach a goal of $10,000 to help my dad get started down this road.
Thank you!
