I see no reason why Teresa can't have a 70 to 100% chance of recovery --- Dr. Laura
Teresa is a 25-year-old young woman who suffered an incomplete quadriplegic spinal cord injury three years ago in a snowboarding accident. Since her injury she has had three surgeries, has undergone thousands of hours of rehabilitation, has tried many remedies both western and eastern in nature to help her body heal. While doing this she returned to college and painting with her limited arm movement and helps others who are living with similar injuries.
From the moment I met Teresa, only hours after her accident, I knew I was in the presence of a spirited being. Someone whose purpose on this planet goes beyond a mere simple life. Although she did not will this experience upon herself, she has taken on the challenge with serenity, determination, and faith. She refuses to give up on herself or others. Don’t get me wrong, she does have her bad days, but I truly see her spirit as one whose message will eventually help thousands.
We’ve created this website to ask for your help. Teresa has an opportunity to go to Peru to receive special treatments by a Doctor Laura Pacheco, who herself sustained a quadriplegic injury from an accident in the early 90’s. After spending time in the mountains of Peru with the indigenous Mochica people receiving these treatments, Dr. Laura recovered completely and even went on to become a Karate world champion! After some investigation we have found that she as been able to assist others with great success.
If ever you wanted to feel that you’ve made a difference in someone’s life, here is your opportunity. And if ever there were someone willing to take the chance to not only help herself, but to also bring back the good news to others who might benefit, it is Teresa.
Although we are not currently a nonprofit organization, we hope that as Teresa progresses in her healing process through these methods her success might change the course of millions of people with paralysis around the world. The Peruvian project is a fundraiser for Teresa, established by her family and friends, but we hope to create a nonprofit in the near future with your help. You may be asking yourself why you haven’t heard of this before. The answer is quite simple. When the pupil is ready… the teacher will come.
We are so excited to give back even as we receive and look forward to the next person who will appear on this site next year and be afforded a chance to receive the blessings of these treatments. We believe and understand how together we can change a person's life. It only takes a "village" and through this endeavor we are creating a new "village" of celebration, hope and miracles.
