(as posted on his mothers Facebook and Go Fund Me Pages, Mel Hughes)
After a lifetime of strength and courage and several surgeries, we have come to a cross road with Ontario Healthcare and are finding ourselves in desperate need to travel to Baltimore for treatment.
Cody has been through a titanium jaw and chin replacement, a left wrist fusion leaving him with no movement in wrist, most recently his ankles both being attacked by his disease.
He courageously battled a two year period awaiting his jaw surgery in bed, we fought the government to receive the surgery in two years instead of four as we were watching him slip away.
We are now faced with the fear of fusing his ankles and him losing the ability to move them, so we are forced to travel to save our son from a wheel chair.
We have had so much love, prayers and help along our road and are so very thankful!
We are asking for help to get him to the best hospital in the world John Hopkin's in Baltimore.
Please share this link with friends, family and anyone you can who can help this brave young man get the help he so desperately needs. With your help this is possible!
