Hello everyone! For the last 3 weeks, along with his 28th birthday, Malik has been in the hospital fighting for answers and struggling to recover from what doctors believe is a rare severe case of Polymyositis with biopsies revealing ‘Myonecrosis with rare regenerating fibers and focal atrophy.’ This sudden onset came with no warning signs but rather a devastating impact on Malik’s life, health, and financial abilities to get the proper care and treatment to battle this extremely debilitating illness that has caused him to lose 30 pounds in 3 weeks, mobility in all extremities, and difficulty swallowing with feeds through a G-tube.
If you ever met Malik, you would instantly fall in love with his laid-back, positive, upbeat, caring, silly personality! This is going to be a long, tough, and costly journey for Malik as his medical insurance only covers partial for ALL of what is NEEDED to get the proper treatment and care to beat/prevent this illness from getting worse! So PLEASE, any donation would be greatly appreciated during this extremely difficult time.
