Ala's sitting aid and therapy
Donation protected
Hi.
My name is Alicja , but everyone call me Ala, I am 11 months old I live with my Mum, Dad and my big brother Daniel.
When I was 20 days old I got sepsis, meningitis and pneumonia. In a hospital I stopped breathing for 3 minutes, so doctors decided to put so many tubes, pipes and wires on me. I didnt like it. I am a fighter, I wanted to breath myself, to see my Nana, to play with Daniel and eat chocolate! Finally they understood I am a strong girl and took me off respirator, so I could hug my Mum again. Then we spent another 5 long weeks in hospital until doctors were sure I am ok.
Now I suffer from evolving spastic cerebral palsy, low muscle tone in body and high tone in limbs.
I can smile, but I can't grab, hold and transfer things, I cant sit on my own, but I would like to play with my big brother Daniel and my friend Milo (therapy dog). I need a special support seat which will help me to keep my balance and let my function normally.
I would appreciate if You could help my parents to buy one for me (every 1€ counts!). I would be able to use it on a floor, attached to standard chair and take it with me evrywhere as it is portable!
It's called R82 Scallop, below is a link to show You how it looks (and works):

I also need a car seat suitable for me needs which cost 880€.
If You donate more than we need for chair, ans car seat, every euro will be spend on therapy (hipotherapy, 1 to 1 clasess at the swiminng pool)
Thank You for spending time reading my story
