<div>Hello,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Alexis and I’m reaching out on behalf of my dear friend, <strong>Thomas</strong>, who has been battling a severe condition called Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW) for the past three years. This is a debilitating, iatrogenic (medically induced) disorder that has taken away so much from him—his ability to work, sleep, and even walk on his worst days. Watching him go through this has been heartbreaking.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thomas has tried everything to manage the painful symptoms, but nothing has provided lasting relief. After a long and exhaustive search for answers, he found a promising treatment called CAP (Cold Atmospheric Plasma) that had hope to significantly speed up his recovery. This treatment is available in Bangkok, where medical professionals are skilled in using CAP to help those suffering from conditions like his. Thomas went to Bangkok last year, and this treatment got him to a much healthier state where he could return back to California. However, since he has been back, his health took a turn for the worse.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Thomas needs to go back to Bangkok to get this treatment and stay there for a longer period of time.</strong> Unfortunately, the costs associated with this treatment—travel, accommodation, and medical care/treatment itself—are more than Thomas can manage on his own. That’s why I’m starting this GoFundMe, hoping that we can come together to help him get the care he needs to finally heal.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thomas is someone who is always a light to his friends and family—he always has a positive attitude and has made significant efforts to share his story on social media in efforts to potentially help someone else. He has always been the kind of person who would do anything for his friends and community. Now, it’s our turn to help him. <strong>Any donation, big or small, will go directly toward his treatment and recovery, giving him a chance to get his life back after years of unimaginable suffering.</strong> Please share. And if you are donating, please consider Venmo as well- Gofundme takes a percentage of raised money. @Thomas-Nomad, label donation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for your support, and for sharing Thomas’s story.
