Support Marlee and Parents
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Josh and I'm fundraising for my niece Marlee and her parents, my sister Payton and Marlee's father Maurice.
Marlee was born prematurely and diagnosed with Noonan Syndrome, has heart issues with one surgery already and a probable lymphatic disorder. Marlee is swollen due to a suspected clot and her lymphatic disorder is preventing doctors from treating. UVA does not have the nuclear imaging needed to pinpoint where the suspected clot is. Marlee is currently being cared for at UVA and is expected to be transferred to the Children's Hosptial of Philadelphia (CHOP), where they have specialists for this syndrome with access to innovative care. Needless to say, Marlee has a tough road ahead of her but I know her parents are doing everything they can for her.
My sister and her boyfriend currently live in Culpeper Virginia and the drive to CHOP is around 4 hours. We currently don't know how long her stay might be and right now moving to PA isn't an option. They would have to visit Marlee whenever they can, but affording the extra medical bills and traveling expenses will be tough.
I'm asking for anyone who can spare anything to help this beautiful girl and her parents.
