Meet Ruby! Ruby is a brain tumor survivor with a traumatic brain injury as a result of the treatment implemented to remove the tumor from her cerebellum. Ruby has been cancer-free for three years, however, it left her with ataxia, hypotonia, and general movement impairment that requires many hours at rehab and a myriad of other medical expenses.
“We are so grateful for Team Luke Hope for Minds,” says Ruby’s mother, Jessie. “When insurance refused to cover the physical therapy clinic that we found gave Ruby the best support, TLHFM quickly stepped in to help us. Where insurance has drained us with its conflicting information, piles of confusing paperwork, and ‘Nos,’ working with TLHFM was a breath of fresh air. The application was straightforward, Ronda was so kind when I called with questions, and the ‘Yes’ to our request was given joyfully. With Team Luke Hope for Minds’ help, we have been able to significantly cut the cost of our medical expenses and continue to pursue safety and healing for Ruby. Thank you!”
