<div>Hi my name is Deborah Lyons, I am fundraising for Izzy my beautiful daughter .Izzy is a pupil of Scoil Iosa in Oranmore
</div>
<div>In September 2025, 11-year-old Izzy Sallis from Mullagh, Co. Galway walked into hospital for a planned scoliosis operation. Izzy was due to receive a halo neck stabilization device as part of her treatment, with the hope that it would improve her comfort and quality of life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>During this surgery Izzy suffered catastrophic injury to her brain stem and spinal cord that has left her paralyzed from the neck down and unable to breathe. She has been on a ventilator ever since.
</div>
<div>Izzy is awake and fully cognitive and understandably terrified about what has happened to her. She has remained in ICU since. Our lives were changed forever in that moment. As a family, we are facing a future we never imagined and Izzy's life into the future will be incredibly challenging
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Izzy's life going forward will be incredibly challenging for her and her family. It is expected that Izzy will require lifelong 24/7 care and support, including specialist medical equipment, mobility supports, transport adaptations, and home modifications to meet her needs now and into the future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As well as essential care and living supports, our family may also need to explore additional medical options and treatments in the future, depending on Izzy’s condition and medical advice.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are raising funds to help Izzy and our family with the very significant costs that come with long-term care, accessibility adaptations, and ongoing support. Any donation, no matter how small, will make a real difference. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for supporting Izzy and keeping her in your thoughts.
</div>
