Together for Pam!

Hello everyone,

We are really concern about our daughter, that’s why I would like to share her story with you. My name is Salvador and my wife’s name is Claudia. We love our daughter with all our heart and soul, her name is Pamela.



Pamela was born on June 30, 2008 in México City. During the first 6 months of her life, she presented situations that were not normal at all. We visited doctors everywhere; Federico Gómez, Hospital Angeles, INP, ABC, Sanatorio Español, Médica Sur, etc., (all these hospitals are in Mexico), Finally we found the doctors who gave us the final Pamela’s diagnosis: (mainly 2 results):

1.      Frontal Pachygyria, is a congenital malformation of the cerebral hemisphere (it is an injury in the cerebral cortex that causes a spastic cerebral palsy) and…

2.     The most important one, it is a disease in the blood called Idiopathic Chronic Neutropenia with which we have struggled day by day since she was born. It means that Pamela practically does not have neutrophils, in other words, she does not have defenses in her body to fight different types of virus and bacteria that any human being in normal conditions could fight without the need to step into a hospital. The two sufferings are congenital, which means that she was born with them.

Since she was 7 months, Pam receives rehabilitation and treatment therapies for neutropenia.

It has been very difficult for her, but she is very strong and continues fighting against any obstacles in her life. She is very friendly, happy, sociable, also, she likes going to the school and has a lot of friends and she loves playing with them.



Pam is not able to walk and has been 75% of her life in the hospitals since she was 6 months old. (It is very sad, in 3 occasions, her life was seriously in danger and we had no hope at all and at the end miraculously Pamela is still here). The doctors were very surprised about that.

 Pamela is a very special girl, who teaches us that being in this world is worth it and to fight for her life matters. She shows us with a big smile that living this life is worth it.




As a parents, we do not stop fighting day by day for her, we want to continue enjoying her until the end of course, but... as you all know, all this hospitalizations, treatments and tests cost at a lot of money (even having an insurance), we are spending all our savings without thinking about it twice, but with this disease there is never enough money. (Just the food she is getting now via IV every single day costs US $8,000.00 and she has been 30+ days so far)

 That’s why friends, acquaintance, relatives and unknown people, we are asking for your help so together we can fight for Pamela’s life. The raised money will be use for Pam’s treatments, medicines and hospital.  Your donations are extremely important to continue with her treatments. We will be truly grateful for the rest of our lives!
