Joyce Needs Our Help
Joyce Pierno is a 57-year-old woman who has suffered with multiple sclerosis (MS) for 17 years. Since her diagnosis, Joyce has experienced some permanent nerve damage making it impossible for her to work. She is now permanently disabled. This nerve damage has stolen much of Joyce’s independence, yet she rarely complains. She does, however, dream of a time when she can work again and live her life to the fullest. While doing some research, Joyce learned about StemGenex stem cell therapy. In order to try and halt the progression of this disease, and possibly repair some of the nerve damage, this treatment is necessary however it is not covered by insurance. This potentially life-changing procedure will cost close to $20,000 making the financial responsibility overwhelming for Joyce.

Joyce, I remember you fondly from St. Edmund's and was saddened to hear about your illness. Although the contribution is small, I am praying that it helps you to reach your goal. My family and I will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
