Logans Medical Trip to Cincinnati
Donation protected
We know this is very short notice, but we leave for Cincinnati, Ohio on Tuesday March 22, 2016. Due to some unexpected auto repair costs, the money origianlly saved for the trip was used to repair the vehicle for the trip.
Our son, Logan Kline is 10 years old and was born on March 17, 2006 in New Haven, Connecticut. Since his birth, Logan gets treated for his rare disease, Eosinophilic Esophagitis/Eosinophilic Colitis. Aside from his rare disease, Logan also has a cardiac arrythmia, craniosynostosis, Ehler Danlos syndrome, obstructive sleep apnea, a small mass in his sphenoid bone and partial paraylsis to his palate due to repair for his cleft palate.
Logan started treatment with Yale-New Haven Hospital, then CT Childrens Medical in Connecticut. Childrens Hospital of Boston was next, they were more advanced with Logans disease, a two hour drive from home. After a long wait, Logan was accepted to be seen at the Cincinnati Childrens Hospital in Cincinnati , Ohio. Cincinnati Childrens Hospital has offered him huge promise for the future as they are the leading research hospital for his disease! Although there is no cure for his disease, Logan is a happy 10 year old boy that tries to be there for others, especially his friends that are ill.
We lost our funding for medical transport to and from Cincinnati Children's Hospital where our son is seen by a team of doctors. We fly to Cincinnati for his biopsies and treatments every 6 months and the trips are very expensive. We cannot afford to fly and must drive, as it is the least expensive of the two means of transportation, it will be a 12 hour drive. Logan has been overdue for his scope to check for damage to his esophagus and colon and we cannot wait any longer. We are asking for your help in hopes to raise money to defer the cost of not only this trip but others in the future.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
Thank you in advance for your help.
