HSCT Hope for Hebie!

Hebie was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2009. Her disease has been aggressive over the past ten years and now every day is a struggle for her.

She is now mostly confined to a wheelchair, has extreme fatigue, brain fog and eyesight failure.

Her dream is to be able to read a book, or perhaps walk on a beach - things that most of us take for granted.

Hebie has faced many difficulties in her life but still has a positive outlook and cheerful personality. To help her have better quality of life would be the most amazing gift for her.

HSCT is the only treatment known to halt the progression on MS. The four week treatment in Mexico harvest her stem cells, and replace them after chemotherapy. The success rate is 78%.

Any improvement or halt of her disease would be incredible for Hebie.

We thank anyone who can contribute any amount to help from the bottom of our hearts!
