Imagine this was you. Are you a husband, father, wife, mother? Do you have children and a family who love and care about you? Imagine if one day the unthinkable happened? You got the bad news? What would you do? Would you try experimental treatments to live longer and be with your family? This case is very close to my heart, that's the reason why the World Support Foundation is behind it and that's also why we are sharing it with you.

Beto Tineo is a kind and compassionate family man who lives in New Jersey USA with his beautiful, supportive wife and 6 amazing children (Delilah, Samantha, Nicole, Andrew, Bryanna then Danny), the youngest at 7 and oldest at 21. Beto is a loving father and great husband who works very hard, in his spare time he improved every inch of their own home to give his family a better life. Beto loves baseball, his most memorable weekends were when he was playing with his kids.

In 2012 Beto’s life changed forever when he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, an incurable neurodegenerative disorder of the central nervous system (which finally took the life of the late, great Muhammad Ali). Despite his affliction, Beto considers himself the luckiest man in the world and he still works tirelessly on a full time basis to provide for his family and make ends meet. The negative impacts Parkinson’s disease is having on Beto’s life have become substantially greater over the last few years and today he is heavily reliant on numerous daily medications (Roprinirole, Carbidopa, Enalapril and Atorvastatin) just to maintain some quality of life.

The Tineo family have to rent out more than half of their home, the whole family sleeps in just 2 bedrooms. Cristina and Danny are working full time to support Beto and they rent out their home to try make ends meet but their financial situation keeps getting worse with the ongoing medical expenses. The sad reality is that they can't afford all the daily medication let alone the Stem Cell treatment. Your donation would change their life!! We promise that every dollar given will go to the Tineo family - who desperately need your help, this treatment seems to be the only hope they have left.

We have discovered a few Hospitals in the Dominican Republic which are offering an amazing Stem Cell treatment, this involves implanting healthy stem cells to treat Parkinson's Disease. The treatment has changed lives and in some cases it has had positive results in as little as 24 hours! There are dozens of articles on the hospital websites of real cases where people like Beto were significantly better - immediately after the treatment commences. I cried when I read the case studies, realising in that very moment that finally there was real hope for my friends Cristina, Beto, their wonderful children and family.

The World Support Foundation is supporting this great cause by covering the costs to send Beto (and Cristina) to the hospital in D.R. so that he can meet with the doctors in October 2016. Yes, that's only weeks away, it's next month!!

The Tineo family need to miraculously come up with $25,000AUD so that Beto can afford the treatment of Stem Cell transplants to help him. The transplants would give Beto and the Tineo family a better quality of life by enabling Beto to do many of the things that he cannot do today, the small things that most of us take for granted without notice. Like playing ball, going for a long walk...

The Tineo family really need your help! Just a small donation, anything that you could spare, every singe dollar will help and all the funds raised will go toward Beto's medication and the treatment for the effects of the Parkinson's Disease, which seriously impacts him and his family everyday.

This treatment could change the Tineo family's life! Perhaps Beto may even be able to play catch and enjoy a game of baseball with his children again?!

Faith and hope is all this family have left and now with your help we could help to make their dreams possible, a reality for which they pray for every single day.

WSF be posting weekly updates and more information on Beto's fundraising, progress, the treatment, his health, with photos...

We are hoping for a miracle, we pray that we can raise enough money in the next few weeks to make this dream a reality for Beto and the Tineo family in October 2016!

Without your help this would not be possible so please give whatever you can. Again every single dollar helps!

We at the World Support Foundation thank you kindly, for doing the right thing and breaking your bread to share it with those who need your help.

The Tineo family, Beto, Cristina and their beautiful children are very very grateful for your donation and help, they are so humble, they sincerely appreciate that you even took the time to read this. Thank you.
