My story
Jenson has just turned 5 and has cerebral palsy - spastic hemiplegia. We desperately want him to have surgery in America, it is not currently offered to children with Hemiplegia in the UK. In order to send him to America to undergo this life changing surgery we need to raise in excess of £50,000 so every donation no matter how small would make a world of difference. Please give what you can. This surgery ( Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy ) would remove all the spasticity in Jensons right leg and enable him to walk without the need of ever having to wear leg splints/have botox injections or endure intensive physiotherapy for the rest of his life. Everyday is a struggle and we want more than anything to make Jenson's life easier.
Jenson has now been given a surgery date of the 28th March 2013 ( with the SLCH in America needing the funds 1 month prior at the latest by the 25th February 2013 so the pressure is now really on )
My updates 2
Jenson and his family travelled to St Louis, Missouri on the 23rd March 2013 and he underwent the Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy.He underwent a 2nd surgery 2 weeks later to lengthen his heelcords and hamstrings. For the 1st time he is walking flat footed/straightlegged xx thankyou
We have reached target thank you so much everyone. No need to give up the more we raise the longer Jenson's aftercare can continue to be funded. All your support has been amazing you all rock xxxxxx
