<div>On Tuesday 26th March 2024, Holly was diagnosed with CLN2 Battens Disease. A life shortening and degenerative disease. Very rare. Only 30-50 kids in uk have it. Holly is the only kid in colchester.
</div>

</div>
<div>Without treatment, Holly will only live until she is around 8 years old, losing her sight, speech, mobility, and everything. We are going down the treatment route. Which is not a cure but will slow down and stabilise the loss of basic skills, etc, and will add many years to her life, with expectancy around late teens.

<div>The treatment is brain surgery to implant a port into the blood vessels at Great Ormond Street Hospital. Then, every 2 weeks, Holly has to go to Great Ormond to receive an infusion going straight into her brain. Which is a 4 hour drip. We are raising money to help with travel, hot chocs and toys to help keep this beautiful girl smiling and her parents awake for it all
