                                                                        DovBer
                                                                        has  been  suffering
                MY FATHER'S LIFE                                        from  some  sort  of
                                                                        neurological disorder
                                                                        for a little over a year
                                                                        now. This has slowly
                                                                        taken  from  him  his
                                                         balance and use of his hands so that he
                                                         has become completely dependent. The
                                                         exact cause is not clear despite having
                                                         consulted  with  numerous  specialists.  It
                                                         seems however that the inactivity caused
                                                         by the shut-down immediately following
                                                         a  surgery  at the beginning of  the  covid
                                                         outbreak was a major factor.
                                                           He  is  currently  working  with  a  world
                                                         renowned  neuroscientist  who  believes
                                                         his  condition  may  be  reversed  through
                                                         special  exercises  and  an  experimental
                                                         treatment designed by the doctor (this is
                                                         a year-long study that can only be done
                                                         at home).
                                                         What  is  clear  is  that  inactivity  greatly
                                                         worsens  his  condition  to  the  extent  of
                                                         being  dangerous  for  his  health.  After
                                                         having been through a number of rehab
                                                         and elderly care institutions, we learned
                that these do not help but the opposite. The inactivity which is inevitable in such places for
                someone who cannot walk on his own is very harmful for his condition.  Boruch Hashem
                with the help of many caring baalei chesed we were able to get him home with
                an expert aid. The aid has worked wonders and he has been doing more than
                he had in years.  However he needs 24-hour care.  Due to the insurance laws
                in Massachusetts, they only cover a small portion of that, and the remaining
                cost is enormous.  Please give whatever you can.
