Meet Jacob...
Please help Jacob climb his ladder; in other words to help Jacob reach all of his goals. Jacob was born July 7, 2012 & has many medical problems such as: Poor eyesight; GERD; macrocephaly; progressive dysphasia; epilepsy; congenital muscle disease (CMD); hypotonic; has poor muscle tone; has a feeding tube due to aspirating; & has sensory disorders.
He is seen by several doctors & goes to physical & occupational therapy. Despite all of the doctors' attempts, they cannot find one common diagnosis; the one common denominator responsible for all of these different medical issues. Although Jacob has these issues, he is always full of fun & has a smile on his face! This crew was created to give support to Jacob & his family in their search of that diagnosis.
He needs some very special and expensive tests ran to hopefully give the family and the doctors the information they need to give a diagnosis and get Jacob the treatments he so desperately needs. Unfortunately even with insurance these tests will cost the family $7,000. He needs these tests NOW!
Thank you in advance for all of your support!!
