We urgently need your help

Two of our children, Shelbie 12 and Jackson 8, have been diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 1 a neurological genetic disorder that’s caused my son to develop several tumors one of them a brain tumour and my daughter has an inoperable hole in her skull that is getting bigger as well as additional painful tumours. They need constant transportation for frequent 400 km hospital trips for MRI’s and specialists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, rheumatologists, ophthalmologists, genetisist and oncologist.

We’re struggling with the emotional and financial burden and honestly we don’t know how long our beautiful children may be with us.

As a mother, my heart breaks every day and I’m worried about how to travel back and forth from these treatments that they so badly need. I just want Shelbie and Jackson to be well again. They are so brave and we are there for them, however your financial support will make everything a little easier.

We are appreciative of every donation received and every dollar really does count. Even if you can’t afford to donate, simply sharing our gofundme can make a big difference, we simply want to buy a relaible & safe low km car that is big enough for the hospital trips and stays for the whole family and that can handle rural living and rough dirt roads. The goal is just a number, we just need enough for a car that will fit our familys unique situation and living.

Thank you for your help.
