Timothy’s Wish…
I wish I can see again.
Dear Friends and Family,
It has been a year since Timothy had his first Stem Cells Transplant in China. At first, we were disappointed with the result because our focus was solely in his vision recovery. It took us few months after the transplant to realize that some good thing has happened. Timothy is starting to crawl more frequently, something we have not seen for a long time. In addition, his involuntary eye movement has greatly reduced since the vision lost.

In December 2012, we decided to return for a second transplant. The treatment went well and we felt Timothy got more result from the second treatment compared to the first. His teachers are very surprise of his recovery. They felt Timothy’s cognition has improved and his thought process is much more organized. PTs are telling us that his high tone is less. Timothy now uses less effort when we walk him. Generally, he is more relaxed. Another thing we noticed, his circulation is much better. In the past, he always has icy cold feet even with double layer of socks. But this winter, his legs are much warmer.

These might be small changes but they are huge for a special need child. We are convinced that Stem Cells have the repair characteristic and the procedure is safe for Timothy. We need to continue on this journey because we understand every little bit counts. We are planning for Timothy’s third treatment this coming summer.

The Stem Cell transplant will cost $25,000 and it is not covered by insurance. In addition we will have airfare, transportation, food, and housing expenses totaling $40,000. We need your help in meeting this major financial challenge.

To help with the cost of the treatment, we will continue our fundraising campaign which has been established with HelpHOPELive (formerly NTAF), a nonprofit organization that has been assisting the transplant for nearly 30 years. All donations are tax deductible, are held by HelpHOPELive in the NEW YORK STEM CELL TRANSPLANT FUND, and are administered by HelpHOPELive for transplant-related expenses only. We have only a few months to raise the fund. We are asking for your financial support. Please consider making a donation to Timothy’s campaign to keep the hope alive and help to make his wish come true.
