Pub2Pub – Run4Roki

Roki suffered severe lack of oxygen at birth and as a result has some brain damage and was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy at 5 weeks of age. He continues to fight an uphill battle every day as painful muscle spasms riddle him most of the day.

Roki travelled to India earlier this year for stem cell therapy. His parents have seen significant improvements in his seizures, muscle spasms, pain and movement of his limbs. But, Roki has a long way to go and will need to return to this therapy three to four times before he turns two, this way he can have the best chance for a better future. 

 

So, he needs all the help he can get.
