Help Jose Mejia … Severe Thoratic Spinal Injury
Donation protected
Hi …As some of y’all heard that on Sunday January 30th Jose was involved in a catastrophic accident .. he was on a horse in the morning training hours when his horse stumbled and went down with him landing on top of him crushing him. Jose was flown to UC and there he found out that he had 10 broken ribs and a severe spinal injury … his MRI revealed that he had 4 broken vertebrae in his back . Two up high in his neck and two in the middle of his back .. T4/T6 . He was rushed into surgery where they fuses his spine all the way down using rods and screws … he currently has no feeling below his rib cage and doctors are uncertain when and if it will return . As we all remain hopeful this will be a long road for Jose and financially will be tough . He will need many things to accommodate him when he gets home from adaptive equipment to in home care … we have also looked into Stem Cell Therapy and the success from it seems amazing . We all feel that he would greatly benefit from it … this is not cheap it cost close to 19,600.00 dollars a treatment and is not covered under insurances and he would like need multiple treatments so please donate ❤️ I will withdraw the go fund me money into a savings account for Jose for mainly his stem Cell treatment and whatever else he need’s medically in these hard times …Anything will help and would be greatly appreciated… Thank you in advance and I will post updates on a regular basis…
