Recipient Org: Description | Isabella is a 2 year old twin girl from Great Dunmow. She has Spastic Diplegia which is a form of Cerebral Palsy. Currently, Isabella can not walk unaided due to the high spasticity and tone in her legs forcing her onto tip-toes. There is a surgery available called Selective Dorsal Rhiztotomy (SDR) that has a 100% success rate in improving the mobility of children. This surgery will remove the spasticity and with good aftercare in place, will allow Isabella to walk like a normal child. Unfortunately, SDR and the intensive physiotherapy is not available on the NHS and we are being forced to fundraise in excess of £75,000 to ensure our daughter can walk. We have local organisations, businesses and the general public involved in helping us achieve Isabella's wish. We have raised £35,000 to date but we are running out of time - Isabella's surgery is due to happen in November 2018. The later we leave it, the more problems that will incur in her knees and hips. Just4Children are a registered charity who are supporting Isabella. They help us to raise awareness and we are able to use their charity number. Just4Children hold all of Isabella's funds which can be seen via the JustGiving link - www.justgiving.com/campaigns/charity/just4children/isabellaswishtowalk . They then pay all medical invoices for Isabella for the surgery and physiotherapy. |
