Story

Marcus is 13 from Southend and has Cerebral Palsy, a neurological condition that prevents Marcus being able to walk. He has already undergone over 10 operations in his little life and now he has the chance to access Stem Cell Treatment abroad in Panama.

New cells promote the repair response of diseased, dysfunctional or injured tissue using stem cells and latch onto damaged tissue in his brain stimulating repair on the brain injury.

The Stem Cell Institute in Panama provides therapies using specially screened and processed mesenchymal stem cells sourced from umbilical cord tissue that has been donated after normal, healthy births.

This is the lifeline that Marcus desperately needs to be able to walk alongside his twin brother.

Please donate if you can and share wherever possible.

Thank you for reading this.

With love and gratitude,

The McCarthy Family
