Support Nia Tran's battle with Myasthenia Gravis

Donation protected
Hey there everyone,

We're fundraising to support Nia who's facing a tough battle against Myasthenia Gravis, a rare autoimmune disorder that struck over a month ago when her little one was just three months old. This cruel disease has kept her in the hospital for the past month. As her close-knit crew, we're reaching out for a little helping hand during this devastating ordeal.

Myasthenia Gravis is an autoimmune disease that causes nerve receptors on the muscles to be blocked by antibodies, resulting in muscle weakness. This has been affecting Nia's ability to chew, swallow, open her eyes, speak, and most critically, breathe. At the moment, her lung functions are at 50%. The disorder is caused by a Thymoma, a tumor in the Thymus gland.

Nia's battling a particularly severe case and she's on a lengthy path to recovery. Currently, she's wrestling with persistent muscle weakness and episodes of respiratory failure. Surgery is on the horizon, but so far it's been a tough slog.




Nia is not only an extraordinary person, she's also a loving mum to a beautiful baby, having given birth only months earlier. Her partner, Rainer, has taken unpaid leave to care for their new baby and to be beside Nia whenever possible. The emotional and financial pressure on their family is immense right now.

Your generous support will help bring Nia's family from overseas to help with the baby and provide that essential backbone during her strenuous rehabilitation journey. This support will ensure Nia has all the love and care she needs while she works hard to regain her health.

We know times are tight at the moment, but any amount you can contribute will truly make a big difference for Nia and her young family.




Your kindness and contributions mean everything. Please share this campaign far and wide to help us reach our goal and support Nia on her way back to health.

A huge thank you in advance for supporting Nia and her family.
