Hola amigos! mi nombre es Ignacio Alfonso, tengo 4 años de edad, y soy de Venezuela; a mis 11 meses de nacido comencé a tener espamos infantiles, mejor conocidos como síndrome de west, he iniciado desde entonces rigurosos exámenes neurológicos y tratamientos con anticonvulsivos, además de asistir semanalmente a terapias de intervención.

Luego de realizarme un VIDEO - EGG en mayo de 2016, mis doctores concluyen mi diagnóstico: EPILEPSIA MULTIFOCAL Y RETRASO GLOBAL DEL DESARROLLO, hasta la fecha he sido farmacoresistente y no se controlan mis crisis. En mi última valoración neuropediatrica se indica la implantación de un ESTIMULADOR DEL NERVIO VAGO (VNS) VNS WikiPedia este estimulador es para prevenir las convulsiones, enviando pulsos regulares, leves, de energía eléctrica a mi cerebro. El dispositivo que proporciona estos pulsos es similar a un marcapasos, y por medio de cirugía se colocará debajo de mi piel en la pared toraxica, y va conectado al nervio vago cerca de mi cabeza y Dios mediante lograré desarrollar una vida normal.

NECESITO DE TU AYUDA, Gracias a Dios hemos logrado adquirir el estimulador, luego de meses de gran esfuerzo y gracias a mis padres, familiares y amigos que han tendido la mano para ayudarme a alcanzar dicho fin. Aun tenemos un importante paso por delante que dar, que es la colocación del estimulador y por la difícil situación que atraviesa mi pais no poseemos los recursos suficientes para cubrir la intervención quirúrgica requerida. Se que podemos contar contigo y por eso recurrimos a solicitar esta gran colaboración para que me puedan operar lo antes posible, en nombre de Dios podré salir victorioso y disfrutar una vida en mejores condiciones, con la esperanza de mejores resultados y compartiendo mi felicidad con todos los que me rodean ...

Hi friends! My name is Ignacio Alfonso, I am 4 years old and I am from Venezuela; When I was 11 months old, I began to have infantile spasms, better known as West syndrome, since then I have started rigorous neurological treatments with anticonvulsants such as: valproic acid, clonazepam, levetiracetam and topiramate. This medicines are shortage in my country; In addition, I attend weekly therapies such as: language therapy, occupational therapy and physiotherapy.

After performing a VIDEO - EGG in May 2016, my doctors concluded the following diagnosis: MULTIFOCAL EPILEPSY AND GROWTH GLOBAL DELAY, to date I have been drug resistant and my crises are not controlled. In my last neuropediatric assessment the doctor indicated an implantation of a VAGO NERVE STIMULATOR (VNS) VNS WikiPedia, this stimulator is to prevent seizures, sending regular, light pulses of electrical energy to my brain. The device that provides these pulses is similar to a pacemaker, and through surgery it will be placed under my skin on the thorax wall, and it will be connected to the vagus nerve in my head. God willing, this will help me to develop a normal life.

WE HAVE GOT THE VNS, JUST NEED THE SURGERY!

I NEED YOUR HELP, thanks God we have managed to acquire the stimulator, after months of great effort and thanks to my parents, family and friends who have reached out to help me achieve the VNS donation, we still have an important step ahead to give, which is the placement of the stimulator or SURGERY. Due to the difficult situation that crosses my country, we do not have enough resources to cover the surgical intervention required. I know we can count on you and that is why we resort to request this great collaboration so that we can get the surgery as soon as possible done. In the name of God I will be victorious and I will enjoy a better life, hoping better results and sharing my happiness with all those around me...

You can help me by donating or sharing this story. Your donation, however small it may seem, has a huge meaning and represents a huge contribution for me.

(The money collected will be used only and exclusively to get the vagus nerve stimulator SURGERY done, and treatments)
