Michael Ortiz Hill Stem Cell
Donation protected
Dear friends,
As many of you know, my dad, Michael (Miguel) Ortiz Hill, has been living with Multiple Sclerosis for the past 13 years. As a result he lost his career as a registered nurse, his mobility is impaired, and he has many other symptoms which make daily life difficult. In spite of all of this, he has continued to live a joyful life, and remained both hopeful that he will find an effective treatment, and at peace with living life with a disability.
Two years ago, he came to live in the Bay Area, so that he could be closer to me, his only child, and his grandson, Shylo who is now six. It has been a blessing to have him in our lives. My dad has always had a child-like imagination, which made my childhood magical, and I now get to see him enter into the world of imagination with Shylo; a world where Fuzzy Wuzzies poop pennies, and the Inanimates come to life. Shylo loves his "Yoyo" deeply.
Recently, my dad began to discuss with his neurologist, the possibility of using Stem Cells to treat his MS. He was referred to Silicon Valley Stem Cell Treatment Center in Cupertino, CA. http://www.svstemcell.com/
Dr. Chen at the treatment center believes my dad is a good fit for this treatment which could possibly reverse the damage done by the MS, reduce inflamation and regenerate healthy cells. The cost of the treatment is $9,800, and is not covered by insurance. The procedure uses Stem Cells harvested from my dad's own fat, which are then injected both into an IV and his spine. These cells can change into bone, cartilage, muscle, fat, collagen, neural tissue, blood vessels, and even some organs. Because it is his own DNA material, there is no rejection.
MS has no cure, and very few effective treatment options. It is important to my dad to know he tried everything to heal his body.
Because he lives on his Social Security Disability payment, and was not able to work for the last decade, the $9,800 treatment is out of reach.
Any financial contribution large or small would be greatly appreciated. As soon as we have the funds raised, we will schedule the procedure.
If you are unable to support my dad's cause financially, we would appreciate your messages of goodwill, prayers, healing rituals, flowers, cards, help with transportation, and love.
With Love,
Nicole Lockwood
