When she met Prof. Karussis for the first time, she was walking with a walker, but couldn’t walk any real distance. It was December 2014. In the spring of 2015, Malia, who was accepted into HMO for treatment, traveled back to Hadassah to have a bone marrow extraction, which would be the basis for her stem cell transplant. As she explains, just a syringe of cells is extracted, but then these cells are enhanced in culture for six months. In the fall of 2016, Malia received her first infusion. The actual infusion, itself, Malia relates, took only five minutes!

Malia was a top Dallas trial attorney--a senior partner in a law firm--and the mother of three children, the youngest, age five. Her energy level was high and her life was full. And then, 18 years ago, she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS).
