JUDAH: No one can stop him now

MY SON'S INSURANCE IS NOW STOPPING THERAPEUTIC TREATMENTS WHICH HELP THE DEBILITATING CHRONIC PAIN THROUGHOUT HIS BODY, ALL EFFECTING HIS QUALITY OF LIFE.

MY SON JUDAH, age 49, worked for 30 years as a dedicated Arborist in the North of Israel. Acclaimed
for his specialised techniques, his methods were so unique, that documentary films were made about his methods. Yet, sadly, none of these techniques could have prevented the devastating fall he took.

ON OCTOBER 18TH, 2017, due to faulty equipment, Judah plunged down ten meters, landing directly on his spine. A loving father to four young children, his dream is to be well again. To walk again.

DIAGNOSED WITH A C4 SPINAL CORD INJURY, paralysing him from the chest down, Judah was hospitalised for six months under intensive rehabilitation.

When he couldn't speak, he drew pictures.

Judah has since returned to his village, trying his best to cope at home alone; not an easy task. The family could not find a responsible caregiver during the day, while his wife is away on a full-time job, trying to make ends meet... and while their four children, aged 8, 10, 12 and 14 are in school.

THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS SETBACKS; respiratory problems, bouts of pneumonia, bed sores that refused to heal, as well as excruciating dentist visits from his crushed jaw. He still suffers from spasms in his legs, which can toss him from his wheelchair . . . all while trying to wean himself off painkillers.

Until now, his insurance has provided, only now all therapies will be stopped.
WITHOUT THESE LIFE-GIVING TREATMENTS, my son's present mental & physical condition will diminish. WE CANNOT LET THIS HAPPEN!

These are his treatments:
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
1) Physiotherapy: 2x weekly + transport

2) Aqua Therapy: 2x weekly + transport

3) Massage for pain control: 2x weekly
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Each treatment including transport, is approximately 100.00 US Dollars. The cost of transport sometimes exceeds his therapies, as the treatment centers are far from Judah's village.

You can help . . . anything from 1 US DOLLAR will be greatly appreciated.
