Tina's Medical Treatment Fund

Tina is from a small village outside Tralee and was recently diagnoised with Alpers Disease.  Alpers is a progressive neurological disease.  Ireland doesn't provide adequate treatment for Alpers, so America is our only chance at easing her seizures.  There is no known cure for the condition - this is why we need to raise enough to take Tina to America for treatment urgently. Tina was 2 and a half when she went into a coma on holidays, then the seizers happened so up and down to Temple Street Hospital since. Tinas balance was never good or she couldn’t walk far she had been exhausted, so I (her mom) knew there was something wrong with her but I was told she was fine. Last March Tina was diagnosed with Alpers there is no cure for it, and she needs medical Cannabis to try stop the seizures which hopefully will give her a longer time with us as we are devastated and helpless. If we get her to Colorado as soon as we can before she really deteriorates that would be a dream – I would like to thank everyone for all there likes and shares, it means it getting out there for these poor children who we could save.

The aim of this go fund me page is to allow us fund her travel and stay in America for her treatment.

Every cent raised will go directly to helping Tina get the treatment she needs and can't get in Ireland.
