Alaynas fighting kidney disease
Donation protected
Hi,
My name is Sara , I am the Proud mother of Alayna who has just turned 7 years old . I first would like to say thanks in advance to everyone for even taking the time to listen in the time of need for my daughter Alayna.
I have been a single mom for quite some time now, I have 3 beautiful daughters I have raised pretty much on my own with the help of my loving parents Susan and Alan Martin. I am 26 years of age and have worked 2 jobs almost my whole life to provide for my family, it has been a struggle but God has helped me through it all and always provided what we needed and I am so thankful for that. I am not one to ask for help because I have always been very independent, but since Alayna was diagnosed 1 year ago I have missed alot of work due to being in and out of the hospital and we have just recently found out in january Alaynas insurance is only willing to pay a small percentage of her medical bills in 2016 as we move forward.
In May of 2015, Alayna was diagnosed with Nephrotic Syndrome, which is a rare Kidney disease found in children. So rare, that only 3 out of every 100,000 kids are diagnosed each year. She has been hospitalized 6 times since diagnosed in may 2015 due to infections, and other stomach complications. The Chapel Hill Medical Team has been working hard to find a resolution of a type of steriod to use since Alayna has not been responding to past medications. Nephrotic Syndrome has no cure , and Alayna is in 2 research programs currently that are working very hard to find a cure. The Chapel Hill medical team has just recently discovered as of the first of April,2016 as we are currently in the Chapel Hill Childrens Hospital that the Nephrotic Syndrome has caused another disease call eosinophilic colitis, which is a very rare gastrointestinal disease, We are currently waiting for more test to be run since she was just diagnosed, Doctors are worried since they have discovered this disease she could possibly end up having chromes disease. We are hoping for the best and planning for the worst.
All Donations and proceeds will go to Alaynas Medical expenses, and again I want to give thanks in advance to whoever can help out and please keep us in your prayers, I will be sure to keep everyone updated on the progress and whats currently going on.
God Bless,
Alayna and Sara
