To our valued Wefunder followers & investors,&nbsp;Today I find myself deeply moved by the outpouring of stories and support my team has received from you—our growing community of investors—over the last several weeks. Every day, I receive messages from our Wefunder investors that remind me why our work at Eliaz Therapeutics is so vital.&nbsp;What touches me most deeply are the stories of transformation. Our community includes both those who have experienced the healing power of addressing Galectin-3 through our earlier work, and those who understand firsthand the urgent need for better solutions in critical care:"I am a cancer patient who was given a prognosis of 3 months nearly 3 years ago. I have benefited greatly from modified citrus pectin... I believe that Dr. Eliaz's groundbreaking research has really made a difference to thousands of people and would like to encourage the continuation of this to help many more."&nbsp;—Eunice Stagg, Psychotherapist"I'm a customer using PectaSol to treat rising PSA 20 years after prostatectomy. It arrested the rise and has brought it down to low levels. As a retired biochemistry professor, (my wife and) I have confidence in the theoretical underpinnings of the XGal-3 innovation."&nbsp;—John PelleyEqually moving is how healthcare professionals across disciplines recognize that true healing requires addressing root causes. Their insights reflect a shared understanding that we must move beyond merely managing symptoms to transforming critical care:"As an advanced EMT, any way to improve the survivability rate of patients with sepsis is a no-brainer in my book."&nbsp;—River Dixon, EMT & Firefighter"I am very enthusiastic about prevention, but when a person succumbs to a serious illness, time is critical for intervention. This is a life-saving way to keep giving to the community."&nbsp;—Catherine Ritchie, Retired Emergency Department RNIn my decades of clinical practice, I've learned that the most powerful healing occurs when we unite cutting-edge science with deep understanding of human suffering. Your support of Eliaz Therapeutics embodies this union, creating a foundation for breakthrough treatments that honor both the complexity of disease and the sanctity of human life.Together, we're building more than a company—we're nurturing a vision of medicine that could transform countless lives. For this shared journey, I am profoundly grateful.With heartfelt appreciation and renewed purpose,&nbsp;Isaac Eliaz, MD, MS, LAcFounder & CEO, Eliaz Therapeutics
