Campaign Story
We are trying to raise funds for a Vietnam Veteran who suffers from COPD and had exposure to Agent Orange. He qualifies for Stem Cell treatments and the doctors feel it will help him greatly to be able to get him off his oxygen and cut down on all the drugs he relies on just to be able to breath. Imagine breathing through a straw and someone sitting on your chest at the same time! He served in the United States Air Force for 20 plus years. He served one tour over in Vietnam. He is the father of 3 children and each one of them followed in their father’s footsteps and went into the military and served their country.He is an extraordinary man with great strength, pride and great leadership both in his career and in his family.Please help us get him Stem Cell treatment and follow his story. With approximately 14 million people who suffer from COPD, and with it being the 3rd leading cause of death, why hasn’t there been any new treatment modalities besides unsuccessful drugs!Finally, coming to the forefront from the Lung Institute is Stem Cell treatment for COPD.Please support this veteran and help restore his quality of life as he has supported his country and given the ultimate sacrifice…his health. This is your chance to be on the front lines for him and future people to suffer from this debilitating disease.

Agent Orange was a terrible weapon with horrible affects on our troops after they got home.
