Beautiful Brandy Hollis needs our support!

Donation protected
Hi everyone! I am starting this fundraiser in support of our dear friend and motosister, Brandy Hollis. Brandy is currently in ICU dealing with involuntary spasms that are affecting her whole body and ability to function including performing the smallest daily task. So far, she has received no answers of what could be happening with her young and otherwise healthy body. When all of this first started, it was going to take four months to get into a neurologist in the US, therefore she started treatment with a reputable doctor in Mexico. While in Mexico she received plasmapheresis peptide therapy and stem cells with a treatment plan to come back in one month, however, these treatments are $25,000-$35,000 dollars and not covered by insurance. This has been a HUGE financial burden for her and Garrett, as Brandy is no longer able to perform her job as a flexologist, along with Garrett taking multiple days off to help care for his wife of 13 years.

As of today she is still in ICU and has been given tons of Valium for spasms and muscle relaxers to try to keep her comfortable. The diagnosis possiibilities are; MS, ALS, polyneuropathy and autoimmune. She is currently having trigeminal neuralgia causing nerve pain on both sides of her mouth, along with hemifacial spasms which are cramps that last up to 1 1/2 minutes in one position. Latest developments as of today has been her body being in full paralysis. How terrible, as she can not move anything, including her eyelids to blink. This paralysis is followed by hysterical bawling and spasming. The spasming has progressed from her face to the rest of my body pushing her back into painful and long lasting arches and her stomach cramps so hard it pulls her forward by her glutes, quads, and hamstrings. From my understanding, the worst being her upper thoracic spasms, because it makes it challenging for her to breathe. Brandy will require substantial amounts of drugs to minimize the spasms with risks of needing a breathing tube.

Operating on one income and with unknown treatments, hospital stays, along with none of her treatments in Mexico being covered, I am asking for any help financially big or small for our beautiful, young and fun loving gal. Please share and donate if you are able.
