Here there is a small example of stem cell therapy which has given a new hope to survive.
Morgan Van Breda, a 32-year old lady has set an example for all those people who are disable and believe that this is the end of life. The beautiful, strong, and brave lady is paralyzed waist-down and is cycling through India to raise funds and awareness about spinal cord injuries.
Morgan is suffering from T-12 injury since she was 24. According to information, a soccer post collapsed on her back, shattering her T 11/12 vertebrae. Doctors believe that she won’t be able to walk entire life but Morgan doesn’t think the same and lives with dignity.
She feels that she is fine and is a professional cyclist. Currently, she is on India Tour along with 30 other cyclists. Her all colleagues are able to walk, and she is the only one paraplegic in the group, but despite of these entire she is so much optimistic towards life.
She will tour to India and visit Buddhist temples on a hand cycle, from Agra to Kanyakumari, approx 39, 00 kms. The motive of seven-day journey is to raise awareness about spinal cord injuries and funds for her stem cell treatment.
She expresses her view, “India is a beautiful country. It is giving me the ultimate confidence and it’s like if I can do this then I can accomplish anything in life. When I first drove to Mumbai, I read a billboard that said everything is Possible as even ‘Impossible spells ‘I am Possible’”.
She is so much enthusiast and confident about achieving her goal. Sticking to mandate "Heal to be Healed" coupled with Canadian charity, ‘The Dirty Wall Project’, she is providing the wings of freedom to the disabled in slum areas by distributing cycles to them.
The lady will be spending the next two month in Delhi, regarding her stem cell treatment. She says confidently, “I believe I will walk again 100 per cent. I have no doubts about it”.
She is the live example of the phrase that, when there is hope, there is life. We wish her all the very best for her treatment.
