This is for our daughter, Emily Hooks and Emily is 8 years old and since the age of 5 years old has suffered from Chiari Malformation 1 of the brain,( when it was discovered) and most recently cervical syrinx caused by the Chiari. Emily had a Craneotmy in August 2015 to release the pressure and to remove the brain piece in the spine, however, the decompression did not work and we now have to go back and fourth to Texas Childrens Hospital in Houston. We see neurosurgeons their and will be continuously going back every few months. Between some of the medical expense and the expense of the trips to Houston , things are getting harder to cover. We have been doing it on our own for the last 6 months but now we are starting to struggle. Emily will most likely need another Craneotmy because she has gone from 1 cervical syrinx to about 8. Our next travel is April 1 and each trip is about 800.00 and that is coming back, but if we have to stay for another surgery, I just don't know what that will cost. We just need help and I didn't know what else to do. I am begging for your prayers and I am grateful for everyday. This could take some worry off of the piles we have, please I beg of you have mercy and thank you so much.
