From Wheelchair to Playing Ball: A Boy's Miraculous Recovery

After battling severe Long COVID for over two years, 14-year-old Dylan Smith found a miraculous recovery through the Spero Clinic's alternative treatment, which focuses on holistic healing of the central nervous system. Thanks to this groundbreaking care, Dylan went from being bedridden and dependent on a feeding tube to fully healed, active, and pain-free within just three months.

We all remember the COVID pandemic, but what may not be known is that roughly 17% of ex-COVID patients have suffered extreme symptoms long after the infection had cleared. This condition is called "Post-COVID Syndrome or "Long COVID."

Even though COVID [https://www.thesperoclinic.com/conditions/long-covid/] most often occurs in people who have severe COVID-19 illness, those with mild symptoms or no symptoms at all can also be affected. Unfortunately, this happened to the Smith family in Easton, Maryland.

From Healthy Teen to Bedridden Fighter as Long COVID Takes Hold

Their 14-year-old son, Dylan, has battled severe Long COVID for more than two years [https://www.thesperoclinic.com/conditions/long-covid/]. Worse, neither mom Stacey nor dad Mike Smith or even their doctors had any idea what was causing Dylan's illness. The fact that he had been an athletic, healthy kid with no underlying health issues made his symptoms even more baffling.

Dylan contracted COVID-19 in January of 2022, one week after his mother got ill. Both recovered, but Dylan's symptoms quickly progressed from chronic fatigue, body aches, and migraines to even seizures. As a result, Dylan took his last independent steps in June 2022.

His condition was diagnosed as Long COVID, and the Smiths sought medical help. They ended up being referred to a multitude of doctors and clinics, to no avail - Dylan's symptoms and pain only worsened. According to father Mike Smith, Dylan's pain was so intense that they often had to go to the emergency room to try and seek relief.

When Dylan finally seemed to improve thanks to a new medication, this improvement didn't last. He contracted COVID-19 again in February 2024 and became bedridden with a feeding tube.

At Last, a Glimmer of Hope: Dylan's Road to Recovery Begins at the Spero Clinic

In their desperate search for a treatment that would give results, Mike and Stacy Smith found the Spero Clinic in Fayetteville, Arkansas, and their unique treatment for pediatric Long COVID. Their treatment is based on the holistic premise that the body's central nervous system is fully capable of healing the body from within.

Dr. Katinka van der Merwe, founder and CEO of the Spero Clinic, says, "Long COVID symptoms are temporary and can be reversed with The Spero Clinic's Long COVID treatment program. I have made it my life's mission to treat patients who suffer from so-called 'impossible' diseases - those that have been given up by the medical community."

Thankfully, Spero and its Founder Dr. Katinka were able to give Dylan his much-needed treatment, and with astounding results [https://youtu.be/Zs2OwZPU3UQ?feature=shared].

Already three months after receiving treatment at the Spero Clinic [https://www.thesperoclinic.com/], Dylan's progress was remarkable . He could move his body, no longer needed his feeding tube, and could talk without problems. Most importantly, his pain was completely gone.

Right now, Dylan is fully healed, healthy, and active again.
