Help Parker Frey Overcome CRPS

Donation protected
Our lives changed drastically in 2021 with my son Parker’s injury and subsequent diagnosis of CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome).

Parker has been battling CRPS since fracturing his ankle while playing football in October 2021. Within days, his pain skyrocketed, and he couldn't move without pain. We have visited many doctors to find a cure for this painful syndrome.

In March 2022, Parker, his grandfather, and I went to Philadelphia for treatment. Despite six weeks of all-day therapy, his condition did not improve and eventually worsened. This past month he has made some progress, but he is still experiencing drop foot, atrophy, swelling, and color changes. Parker is still non-weight bearing and cannot walk on his own.

Recently, our family discovered Spero Clinic in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Spero Clinic treats patients with all sorts of neurological issues, including CRPS. From social media, we have seen many people diagnosed with CRPS experience remission in about 14 weeks. This is extremely impressive as CRPS is difficult, if not impossible, to cure.

Parker begins treatment at Spero Clinic on May 9. Since insurance does not cover the high cost of this treatment program, we have set up a GoFundMe campaign. The funds raised will go toward Parker's treatment and our basic living expenses in Arkansas, such as gas, food, and lodging. We were very impressed with the clinic's staff and facilities during our recent visit, and we believe their 14-week program is the best option for Parker's full recovery. Any contribution you can give towards helping Parker regain his health and return to his normal life would be greatly appreciated.

We appreciate you taking time to read this message, and we are deeply grateful for any support. Together, we can help Parker overcome his condition and get back to being a happy, active 13-year-old boy.
