Hi, my name is Mandy and I am wanting to raise funds to donate to my special buddy, Liam for his upcoming club foot/ankle surgery! Liam is the smartest, funniest, and smiliest 17 month old I know! He has been diagnosed with a rare genetic syndrome called popliteal pterygium syndrome. It can cause various anomalies including club feet. Liam has already undergone several surgeries involving his ankles/feet as well as cleft palate repair and synadactyly (webbed finger) correction in his short life. He is the bravest boy we know! He still has many surgeries to go and in order to give Liam the chance to grow up walking, running, jumping, playing and best overall quality of life he is in need of a specialist that is out of network. This specialist is Dr. Matthew Dobbs and he runs the Club Foot Center in Florida. He has his own special surgical technique and is Liam’s best chance at having the quaility of life he so deserves! Liam’s surgery with Dr. Dobbs is scheduled for March 2024 and I would love to help take off some of the financial burden that Liam’s parents, Karlie and Garrett, are faced with. As we all know it’s hard enough to worry about paying off medical bills especially ones that insurance does not cover but to also worry about your loved one who is a young child with such a bright future getting through these multiple surgeries safely. I want to be able to help take some stress away if possible! So with that said if you feel so inclined to donate even a small amount, as every bit helps, I would greatly appreciate it. I can’t wait to see Liam up walking in the months to come! Thank you!
