Alberts Fundraiser
Toureen Group are helping little Albert raise the much needed funds to recive life chaging surgery in America.
Alebert is the son of Adrian Cornea who works with Toureen.
Alberts Story:
Albert was born on the 11th of August 2016 at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital with suspected PostUrethreal Valves. Immediately after he was born, he was taken into NICU, and ever since then, his left is all about antibiotics, surgeries, severe recurrent UTIS and about PRUNE BELLY SYNDROME, a debilitating condition, meaning he has no abdominal muscles and severe urinary tract problems.
At the moment Albert has only one kidney working with less than 70% function, in Chronic Kidney Disease stege three and other severe problems, after severe recurrent utis with sepsis, major surgeries happening this year and the families only dream for Albert is for him to have a reconstruction surgery of his abdominal muscles in the USA.
Alberts Family need to raise funds so that their son Albert can have a life changing operation in USA, performed only on tens of patients so far.This surgery will not only help him lead a normal life, but will also help with his kidney and urinary tract health, because having no abdominal muscles will always create problems, sometimes even with heart, lungs and spine.
His internal organs might move position, change dimension, etc. , all because of this deficiency of muscles. The surgery planned in USA would basically be a transplant of a muscle from his leg to his abdomen, an absolute innovative idea, followed by abdominal reconstruction and years of phisiotherapy. The operation is called a dynamic abdominoplasty with a muscle transposition and is only performed at this stage in USA. Albert is a very happy child, less happy when he falls ill.
How can you Help?
We are hoping we can help raise funds so that we can help Alberts family raise the much needed funds to send Albert to America for his life changing surgery!
