Scott's stem cell procedure 2017
Donation protected
At age 32, Scott was diagnosed with MS in 2004 after a major relapse that caused him double vision, extreme fatigue, numbness in hands and feet, balance issues and more. This explained many years of strange symptoms that came and went. 4 years ago, Scott's symptoms progressed to the point where walking or standing was becoming a challenge.
Because of the amazing financial support of friends, co-workers, church community and family, Scott took a long road trip to California last year
for a mesenchymal stem cell procedure and a vein dilation to help with his MS symptoms. By 6 weeks post procedure, we watched Scott go from needing a cane and unable to stand very long or walk many steps to standing much longer, walking further and seeing many more positive changes.
However MS is still an active disease and Scott has noticed his symptoms starting to worsen again. Over the past few months we have researched clinics closer to home and are excited to head to Illinois for a much shorter road trip for another mesenchymal stem cell procedure.
It is booked for Tuesday August 15 and are ready to see what healing God can bring once again through stem cells. Thank you for your support! We are truly blessed to be part of such an amazing community!!
