Created January 2nd, 2025

Hello,

My name is Isabella Diaz, and I’m raising funds on behalf of my dad, Nelson, a retired police officer who has dedicated over 30 years of his life to serving the City of Plantation, Florida.  He's a gentle and selfless man who has always put others before himself.  Now, as he faces the challenge of dementia which is a result of Amyloid Plaque build up on his brain.  We're seeking support for Kinsula therapy, a treatment that offers hope for those with cognitive impairment which helps break up the amyloid build up on the brain.  Insurance after months of trying and several appeals will not cover his treatment due to a plan exclusion.  In the meantime, we have been delayed in getting him treatment.  This treatment will improve his quality and longevity of his life.  The costs are significant,  any contribution will directly aid my dad in accessing the care he needs to manage his dementia with dignity.  Your generosity, prayers, and support mean the world to us as we navigate this journey together.  Thank you for being part of our family's fight for my dad's health and well-being.

So sorry to learn you are all going through this. Nelson is certainly one of the "good guys". Praying for a medical breakthrough and strength for the Diaz family. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths." Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV

Our thoughts and prayers are with Nelson and family! So sorry to hear of his condition and that the insurance isn't more helpful in covering his needs.
