Olivia's Medical Fund
Olivia is 7 years old, diagnosed early with a rare disease called Pearson's Syndrome. At first she was given a life expectancy of 4 years. Oliva struggles daily with a host of illness and problems that are a result of her being sick. Slowly her body is shutting down, severe diabetes, vision, hearing, gall blatter, tremors, kidney trouble and the fact she has a port for meds and suppliments, are just a few of many issues she hides behind her infectious smile. Olivia's Mom is on long term dissability, to give her the care she needs 24 hours a day. Her annual cost of the meds that are not covered by the Government, or insurance because it is a compounded cocktail, come to a whopping $14,000 annually. Add to that her constant trips to the hospital, the cost of keeping Olivia alive, let alone her normal expenses are far exceeding her income. The goal of this is to just pay for the meds and travelling costs to the Janeway. Please help anyway you can.
