Stem Cell Treatment for Georgiy; Autism
Donation protected
Hello family, friends and community,
I am starting a GoFundMe on behalf of my dear cousin, Lyudmila Vlasenko and her autistic child, Georgiy. Georgiy will be starting stem cell treatment in August, in Arizona.
Luckily, Georgy‘s mom saved his cord blood and stem cells at birth and is now able to use his stem cells to treat his autism. Unfortunately though, his treatment will cost $60,000 + not including travel expenses. This has been a huge burden on the Vlasenko family and is requiring Georgiy’s parents to work 80 hours plus to provide for him and his two brothers.
I’ve asked Georgy‘s oldest brother to write a description of the daily challenges that they face. I would like to emphasize that there is promising research behind stem cell treatment, and that YOU can make a difference in Georgy’s life and be a part of his healing journey by making a donation. I pray that whatever you are able to donate, will be multiplied back to you. I am attaching pictures of his treatment plan, and also a video of a testimony of how stem cells have helped autistic children and their families.
A message from Georgiy‘s oldest brother Nikita
“Hello everyone this is my wonderful little brother Georgiy. He is six and in Kindergarten. He was born on February 22nd, 2018. From what I heard from my parents the pregnancy was really hard on my mom. Georgiy is my best friend and Autistic. Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition of variable severity, it will be a different experience for every family. Right now I will speak only for our experiences. Characteristics of Autism began to show around the time he turned two. It is hard to put into words but my family recognized the signs that Georgiy was unique. Unfortunately for us, the pandemic began when we had begun to seek help. It made securing doctor visits and everything that goes into it delayed and tedious. It took a bit, but a diagnosis was made. From here a game plan was made for speech, hearing, and learning. Progress was always at Goergiy’s pace and he has made everyone proud. He is going to school and loves to laugh and have a great time. However I do want to talk about the unique challenges we have faced. Right now he absolutely has to be supervised. Another thing would be that if Georgiy would have a bad day so would all of us. Meltdowns were very common as Georgiy still doesn’t really know how to communicate what he’s feeling very well. This is never easy and never the same. All this being said, we have a plan to help him. Stem Cell Therapy. This treatment will help Georgiy to live a much more normal life. Costs are $60k. Unfortunately, insurance will not cover this treatment and both of my parents are both working 7 days a week (80+ hours) for not only Georgiy but me and my younger brother Danil. I want to first thank you for reading to this point. It means a lot to us. We need help to make this happen. If you are able to donate, God Bless You and Thank you. -Sincerely The Vlasenkos
