On April 9, 2020, one of my favorite little human beings was born - my nephew, Benjamin Frazier. Benjamin suffered a brain injury shortly after birth, which has resulted in quad cerebral palsy. He is severely physically effected and still working on developing head control. Benjamin cannot roll over, crawl or sit independently. He is also non-verbal and requires feeding through a feeding tube.
Benjamin’s parents have spent an enormous amount of time, energy and money on therapies and treatments for Benjamin. They are always looking for new, but proven treatments to help Benjamin thrive with his condition. While his family has seen some improvements through various treatments and therapies, they feel very hopeful about an opportunity in Monterrey, Mexico called NeuroCytonix.
After hearing about the success that some friends in their community noted after this treatment, Bryan and Lauren (Benjamin’s amazing parents) believe that this treatment might have a profound impact on Benjamin’s physical abilities. NeuroCytonix uses transformational medical technology that is designed to stimulate brain regeneration with new neural pathways. NeoroCytonix was founded by Dr. J. Robert Trujillo, a Harvard educated Neurologist in 2017. The treatment he developed is currently administered in Monterrey and the company has applied for FDA approval in the US. The potential for a restoration of the structure of his nervous system would mean a greatly increased quality of life for Benjamin!
As you can imagine, this treatment comes with a cost. We are hoping to raise money so that Benjamin can receive this treatment and all the benefits it has to offer!! We are setting the goal at $60,000, which would cover the cost of treatment, as well as a portion of lodging, food and travel the month-stay in Monterrey will require.
Lauren and Bryan want to acknowledge the incredible amount of help their family has received since Benjamin was born. They have seen the Lord work through people in countless acts of service and support. But Benjamin continues to need support from his amazing community.
If you've met Benjamin, you know what an incredible kid he is. He has a smile that lights up a room, and is wildly adored by his brother and sisters. Benjamin works SO hard, and there is no doubt that he will give this treatment his all. For more information about the treatment, check out their website:

Any donation is appreciated, and will be a direct blessing to our precious Benjamin and his family!!!
