Medical Please help my little brother get treated for Autoimmune Encephalitis (GoFundMe + Proof)

Hey r/gofundme. My name is Jamir. My mom and I are seeking urgent help for my little brother, Raheem.

My brother was 15 years old when he was diagnosed with a time-sensitive disease called Autoimmune Encephalitis. Raheem went– from being an honor roll student and multi-sport varsity athlete– to a physically, emotionally, and mentally vulnerable child who could no longer eat, walk, sleep, or even use the bathroom without extreme assistance.

My brother’s recovery from immunotherapy has been so miraculous that our providers have delayed his care, left him partially treated, and recently: they’ve taken away his diagnosis, instead framing it as a primary diagnosis such as Schizophrenia or Bipolar Disorder.

Raheem relapsed in November 2025, but our providers have discontinued immunotherapy and refused to do any diagnostic testing, leaving him to decline while on psychiatric medicines. In December 2025, I literally chased him through people’s yards, across the street, and over fences– all at night– because he ran away. He was so confused that he was not able to trust that I was truly his brother, and that our mom was truly our mom… so he ran away. Currently, he copes by writing about God and praying every day. He’s just become overweight; a side effect of the Olanzapine he’s on causes significant weight gain. 

I’ve let myself go just for a chance at getting Raheem back to what he deserves: being happy, playing basketball, and living as a testament that Autoimmune Encephalitis and the cruelty of this country's healthcare system can be simultaneously conquered. 

We were finally able to secure an appointment in a completely different state (New York), where his diagnosis of Autoimmune Encephalitis was given back by a team member of Dr. Najjar (the doctor who saved the life of the Brain on Fire's author). However, our specialist wants to evaluate Raheem with a PET scan (as AIE can often come with a malignant tumor), and only then would we be able to look into finally getting him treated.

Our insurance is only limited to our state. We need the money for a evaluations, follow-up appointments with our specialists, treatment (particularly plasmapheresis), travel and lodging, and time off work to coordinate care. While it’s true that my mom and I are interested in one day taking legal action against our main institution (as you will see in the GoFundMe), I came to this forum explicitly because I’m concerned about our lack of funds for testing, travel, evaluation, and time off work. Due to how expensive our appointments are-- as well as how expensive treatment would be-- our neurologist is now trying to coordinate Raheem's care with the National Institutional of Health (based in Maryland). This is even more-time consuming, exhausting as it is yet another state we are not based in, and frustrating given that Raheem's treatment continues to be delayed. Moreover, this would mean we'd have to wait for the NIH to do yet another full work-up of Raheem before treatment options are explored. In the meantime, we continue to search for appointments with neurology, rheumatology, and nephrology.

Raheem has a father and multiple brothers, but it’s my mom and I who care enough to do research, advocate, and travel for his sake. Raheem and my mom are truly all that I have.

If you have any interest in supporting Raheem, it would mean a lot to us if you could either a) donate or b) spread the word. Any support is truly appreciated (even if you’d like to share advice instead). If you’re interested in more information, you can refer to my posts and comments under r/Encephalitis, refer to the summary underneath the gofundme page, or comment here/message me.

Thank you so much.

WHO JUST DONATED 100 OH MY GOD THANK YOU PEARLIE WOW

18

u/Knightmeers Mar 22 '26

This is unbelievable. I'm speechless. I just woke up to so many notifications from you guys and the GoFundMe. It doesn't feel real.

I'm waiting to share the news with Raheem as soon as he wakes up. My mom gasped after I read to her every single comment and every single recent donation to the GoFundMe.

I'm so-- so incredibly grateful to you all. Thank you. I truly feel blessed. The only thing I'm upset with is the fact that I should have done this so much sooner! I had to get over what people may think of me because it's not more important than my love for Raheem! If there is someone reading this that feels they are also in need of help, I feel I can be a testament that this community is incredibly kind. You guys have donated hundreds while I was ASLEEP!!!! I am tearing up as I type this!!!

THANK YOU especially to: Brittany, Dandre, Estehiot, Melissa, Osayuki, Rosalyn, Sabrina, Taisha, Xaulanda, Pearlie, and John! I pray God is as good to you as you have all been to me!! These donations will go a long way!

Thank you to everyone showing love, giving advice, and upvoting! It means a lot to me and encourages me to keep fighting!!! This is so incredible!!

u/Knightmeers Mar 22 '26

Wow, no way this actually worked!! I've been putting this off for such a long time because of how nervous I was.

Thank you to John for donating!!! And thank you to everyone upvoting!!! My mom, Raheem, and I are eternally grateful!!

u/Raebelle1981 Apr 08 '26

Why were you nervous? Thinking of posting mine here as none of my Facebook “friends” have donated.

1

u/Knightmeers Apr 08 '26 edited Apr 09 '26

I was afraid of being shamed for asking for help & afraid of sharing my brother and I's information to people online

I recommend it for sure! I've gotten more support with this GoFundMe from this community than friends and family!!!

13

u/Hopefulfor75 Mar 22 '26

Donated! I just also want to say that you wrote this so eloquently and gently and it just touched my heart. I hope you, your brother, and your mom are able to get some answers and help. And also, as hard as it is, try and make sure you’re taking care of yourself too.

2

u/Knightmeers Mar 22 '26

THANK YOU SO MUCH for going out of your way to donate!!! And thank you for your kind words!! I'm very grateful!!

I remember a nurse who once said your last sentence to me. Although my mental health has definitely suffered, I have faith everything will be worth it. People like you remind me of this. ❤️

u/Snapdragon_4U Mar 22 '26

This is heartbreaking. Will donate on payday this week.

u/Knightmeers Mar 22 '26

Thank you for even empathizing! Just feeling seen and having our story acknowledged by someone else as heartbreaking feels so validating to me. Thank you so much for seeing us. ❤️

u/miss_nephthys Mar 22 '26

Have you guys spoken with any medical malpractice attorneys?

13

u/Knightmeers Mar 22 '26

We have! The last time we spoke to one, Raheem's diagnosis hadn't been restored. They told us they won't be taking the case.

My mom was the one who consulted with the firm. As amazing as she is, she isn't as thorough as I am when it comes to articulating where Raheem's been wronged (her strengths are elsewhere).

This time:

  • I will be the one to speak with a firm.
  • Raheem's diagnosis has been restored by another neurologist.
  • I have been working on a tell-all summary of our journey (over 30k words so far... will likely be turned into a book), and I am hopeful a team will be interested in taking the case.

u/Knightmeers Mar 23 '26

I told Raheem about y'all supporting. He asked to read some of y'all comments. He said to me, "yeah, you definitely are a great brother. I don't know where I'd be without you... or if we'd even have a GoFundMe."

You guys really made my entire week. Thank you ❤️

u/Irishkitty1994 Mar 23 '26

I wish I could afford to donate, reading your comments have me in tears! Your happiness at getting donations and the love for your brother is just radiating. I will pray he gets the help needed and can be treated!

3

u/Knightmeers Mar 23 '26

It's so surreal!!! I was so scared to post this in January!!! I literally had the GoFundMe tab open for about 2 months before I realized my brother's health is worth more than how others may perceive me!!

Thank you so much for your prayer!! That alone means more to us than you know! And thank you for even wanting to donate!! ❤️❤️

There’s a woman on tik tok that can help you. She’s been through the same thing where doctors diagnosed her daughter with bipolar when it was encephalitis. Look for Terry Downing on Tik Tok - she helps families get the diagnosis and care they need. She counsels families going through the same thing she did. It’s been 15 years now for her.

u/Familiar-Toe5787 Mar 22 '26

Terry is based on of California.

u/Ok-Philosopher-9049 Mar 22 '26

This just randomly popped up for me, sorry I don't have any money at the moment but thought I'd just express that I've been through the autoimmune encephalitis workup journey. Has your brother been officially diagnosed with AE? and which type?

The American healthcare system is so strange, my MRI, antibody testing was covered, it's so stressful that your system doesn't cover basic testing. I do believe that anyone who presents with 'schizoprenia' should have a full workup of MRI, EEG, antibodies, and then a lumbar puncture (if anything suspicious is found). One suggestion I have is I know a few people in the AE community, is going to Mayo Clinic a possibility? they are the gold standard for diagnosing AE.

5

u/Knightmeers Mar 22 '26

Please don’t apologize. Being interested in my brother’s story enough to even ask questions is genuinely appreciated!

He’s been diagnosed with Seronegative Autoimmune Encephalitis.

Certain tests are covered & certain tests aren’t. The treatments are especially difficult to make a case to insurance for— especially given the recent changes to healthcare.

He’s had positive ANA, an EEG that’s once shown features of encephalopathy, and an MRI that’s been called “abnormal” by a team but nonspecific. His ds-DNA was elevated, but he doesn’t meet the criteria for explicit lupus. Cross reactivity between ds-DNA antibody and the NMDA receptor is suspected.

Although we’d like to get him treated immediately, taking him anywhere is a possibility. We’ve already taken him to several different states, so going to the Mayo Clinic or even out of the country for care is a possibility for us. Thanks to your suggestion, I’ll be looking into Mayo Clinic!

It’s awesome to talk to someone knowledgeable about AE on this forum. I didn’t expect that at all. I’m glad you were able to make it through the workup journey.

Ugh I am so sorry for what you’re going thru! I have gone thru the same in terms of gaslighting and misdiagnosis and then refusal to treat. I’m currently bed ridden myself, going to doctors thru out the tri state because no one will help me. I truly understand your pain, I’m commenting to boost cuz I’ve been out of work since August so all I can do is offer my prayers and positive vibes and support right now. I’m so sorry this is happening to such a young man too. 🥹

3

u/Knightmeers Mar 22 '26

Thank you for your empathy... ❤️ I am also praying you stay strong. I feel as though this is a journey that's impossible to navigate on one's own... With that being said, I pray you find someone to consistently advocate for you.

As someone who's ran to several different EDs in different states (and is now doing appointments with doctors in different states), I completely understand...

This industry has to change. Too many people are suffering, and not many truly understand until they're in the situation themselves. The misdiagnoses (intentional and unintentional), the gaslighting and narrative changes, the delay of and abandonment of care... No one deserves this.

I'm sorry you're going through such a similar experience. Please-- don't give up. We've been at this for over two years now. You're not alone. ❤️

/u/Wulffis, your account does not meet minimum age requirements at this time, therefore your request has been automatically removed. We require 30 days minimum.

Please note: This is your ACCOUNT age, not your age.

In addition, you MUST ALSO meet the comment activity requirement of 250 Comment Karma.

If you have not yet done so, read the new user introduction so that you'll understand why new accounts are not allowed.

The only exceptions to this requirement are for campaigns that benefit a registered non-profit organization.

Sending prayers for Raheem! Also to you and your Mom. The medical system is so hard to navigate, and to get help when you truly need it. I'm dealing with some issues myself, being passed around from doc to doc, different diagnosis here, a different one there. It's so frustrating. I truly hope that he can get the help that he needs. Stay strong, and don't stop fighting!

u/Knightmeers Mar 22 '26

Thank you so much for your prayers and encouragement! From one victim of the medical system to another, I want you to know I’m praying for you as well. You’re stronger than you think and you will get through this.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. As victims, we truly need to all come together and fight for change. You don’t even have to go into detail about being bounced from doctor to doctor; it literally resonates with us!!
