A Michigan boy is asking for donations to help fund his trip to China for medical treatment.Kaden was adopted as a newborn by Tom and Elisabeth “Eddie” Strek. He was born three months early and with several medical complications, such as cerebral palsy. He is also legally blind and has excessive spinal fluid that affects his brain and speech.
His parents say none of his medical complications mattered as long as they could have a son.”Something told us this is what we need to do,” Eddie Strek said.The couple said doctors told them Kaden would probably only live three months, but seven years later he’s still with them.The family is trying to raise donations to get Kaden stem cell donations in China, something they said could change his life. But the trip and treatment will cost at least $40,000.Anyone interested in donating to the family can do so at: 3070 Normandy Road Royal Oak, MI, 48073 Or, use a Pay Pal account at www.helpkaden.org.
