Jim Virostko has farmed his entire life.

“From the time I was big enough to start helping out on the farm they kept me busy,” Virostko said.

The last six years on his Parke County farm have been especially tough though.

Not because of lost cattle, or bad crops, but rather a painful shoulder.

“It was quite a nagging pain,” Virostko said.

“Jim was just in a lot of pain all the time,” Pam Virostko, Jim’s wife said.

Doctors told the couple a complete shoulder replacement was the only way to permanently relieve the pain caused by osteoarthritis.

His wife had something else in mind.

“we asked surgeons, hospitals and doctors and really they didn’t know about stem cell therapy,” Pam Virostko said.

That’s when fate stepped in.

“I thought this is our referral, this is the referral we’re looking for,” Pam Virostko said.

Pam sent an email asking for Doctor Lox’s contact information.

One month later, the couple was in Florida preparing for Jim’s stem cell replacement procedure.

And the rest is history.

“I had basically instant relief from that point on,” Jim Virostko.

Jim and his wife, Pam share their story in this video.
