Faith

Today someone questioned the integrity of the doctors in Ecuador and the progress Patrick is making. I took it all in and then decided to ask the doctors if I could share something very important. These men and women are so dedicated to healing and the progress of their patients that they have been in contact with me over the past four months as they are with all their patients. As most of you know this has been a long bumpy road for our family. We have suffered financial loss, emotional pain, and have made it because we stuck together, chose to look outside the box, and most of all trusted our faith and knew God would guide us. What is the quality of a doctor? The quality of a doctor is best shown when his or her interest lies in the well being of the patient far more than the well being of their pockets. Well get ready for this. The doctors of Ecuador have pursued us for contact since our departure; it has not been us initiating conversation. The doctors of Ecuador are so committed they are willing to treat Patrick for FREE because they want to determine how much progress he is capable of and care enough to extend this offer. These doctors are the real thing; caring, committed, dedicated, and healers. What does every parent want? For their child to reach their own potential. If Patricks potential is to become potty trained at 13 1/2 years of age and not experience gastric distress that is amazing for Patrick. As the parent of a special needs child I will never give up on maximizing his potential. Would you deny your child medical care or give up on them if it were cancer or any other disease? NO. So why would you give up on your child with neurological diseases?

Faith is tough. Faith is a test. Faith is your strength and your potential. Our family motto is "Never Give Up" and we are very lucky to have family, friends, and doctors that feel the same.
