    Story

    On the 26th of August 2015 my son in law Moe, received the diagnosis that he was suffering with RRMS (Relapse Remitting Multiple Sclerosis). MS is a condition of the central nervous system , the coating around the nerve fibres (the myelin) becomes damaged leading to a range of different symptoms.

    MS differs in every person with the condition. At the moment MS has caused Moe to have severe tremors in both hands, making everyday tasks impossible without my daughter Clare's assistance. He also now has difficulty with his balance. MS is a cruel, unforgiving disease. Moe has remained stoic and has continued to work as a director for two mainstream BBC programmes. He is truly remarkable and such a positive person which helps massively.

    It's a shitty start to Clare and Moe's first year of marriage, they cannot move their lives forward until Moe gets the only real chance he has to halt this disease. My incredible daughter Clare, Andy, Hussian, Abeer and both our families are so excited for this treatment.

    Moe is on medication to try to halt progression in his illness, but this hasn't had any positive results. There is no cure for MS through drug treatment, just a lifetime of medication and decline, but there are major breakthroughs happening thanks to stem cell treatment. And Moe has decided this is the only way forward for him. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation basically re-starts your whole immune system. MS sufferers all over the world who feel the medication prescribed by their neurologist isn't working are making the huge decision to have stem cell treatment. Which in most cases, is having amazing results.

    Because it isn't a simple, or more importantly, a speedy option with the NHS it leaves Moe with no choice but to travel to Clinica Ruiz, Puebla, Mexico for this treatment. Overall the treatment will take 5 weeks and then a years recovery time back home. The treatment and aftercare costs are in the region of £60,000. We need your help to achieve this goal. Love Annie xXx

      Moe is on his way to Clinica Ruiz, Monterey, Mexico, he is making a documentary of his journey, so you will all get a chance to see his incredible journey. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your donations, we’re still fund raising, we had to borrow monies to reach our goal, time is of the essence, to halt the disease. I failed to complete my mountain climb on Jan 1. Wind and storm conditions turned me back 3/4 up, “I will return” as soon as the weather allows. 👊🏻 Thanks again for the love you’ve shown for the amazing Moe Abotuq ❤️
