“I came to think about taking my life\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A year and four months ago I treated myself and in the first two months I noticed a profound change in my interior. Before, he spent his nights in sleep; Half an hour after I went to bed I would get up and start doing anything. My daughters worried and asked me what I was doing awake, why I was not sleeping. “I’m not sleepy”, I answered them and, shortly, I vomited.<\/span><\/p>\n

I dragged my feet, I walked stooped, I needed help for almost everything … I looked like an old lady.<\/span><\/p>\n

But, in addition, I had a lot of medication -6 or 7 pills a day- and patches on my arm and legs that caused me different reactions … This caused me a lot of anxiety. It was terrible and I thought about taking my life.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is how I arrived in Spain. And from then on, everything began to change.<\/span><\/p>\n

My neurologist did not give credit and could not do anything but congratulate me for my remarkable improvement. The patches were suspended and I was able to reduce the medication considerably.<\/span><\/p>\n

The person I am now is a completely new person thanks to the Neuro-regenerative Medicine Center<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

I walk alone, I can work … My daughters can already make their lives and attend to their commitments.<\/span><\/p>\n

I work in a kindergarten with more than a hundred children of different ages and I can hold the babies in my arms without trembling again, with my firm legs and my straight body.<\/span><\/p>\n

But in addition to physical recovery, my mind is much better.<\/span><\/p>\n

I am 69 years old and I look forward to it and to live – with the help of god – many years.<\/span><\/p>\n
