Cohen a great son , brother , uncle too all his family and friends now its our time too help him the best that we can .

Southland

My name is Cohen ,I am 24 yrs old and I have Neurofibromatosis NF1 which is one of the worlds worst genetic diseases known to human kind . Unforgettably I drew the short end of the stick and have been sick all my life , I have had over 20 operations all being serious , I have also been on every man made opiod too the point I could not function as a human being as I was sleeping 18 hours per day , I am the youngest person in the world to have one of my Cancers and its that rare there are only 4 reported cases worldwide , guess what I was number 4 . Because of medications I am deemed and osh risk , so I have never had a job and have never had the experience to earn my own money and seriously it stinks been on a benefit . I also believe that I may be the youngest person to sign a Do not resuscitate order . My life has been a turmoil right from the beginning and just when I think its back on track ( Bang ) I get smacked in the face once again with another medical challenge .The great thing is my parents and family , they have always been there when needed and my Dad even lost jobs as a result of time I spent in Hospital and not once has he ever been negative , mind you none of my family has . My Mum Christine also has this disease and is the same lady that was on here for the facial reconstruction surgery . I have decided enough is enough now and I want time out with my loved ones and therefore seeking Donations too do things that I have never been able too do because of Financial restrictions that were imposed on all of my family because of this dreaded disease .

SO PLEASE HELP ME ACHIEVE THIS AND DONATE TOO MY WORTHY CAUSE WHISLT I AM STILL HERE .

THANKING YOU ALL AND GOD BLESS .
