Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit mollys JustGiving page.

For those of you that dont no molly, she is beautiful 4month old little girl that has been through soo much in her short little life.

Molly was born 5weeks premiture at a tiny 4-14oz. After a wekk in transitional and neonatal care she was then allowed home to be with her family.

5 weeks later she was extremely poorly and was admitted into hospital where it was found she had a cows milk intolerance which means she can not have normal baby milk. 

Only 2days after she was discharged she was re-admitted, and after 4unsuccesful lumber punctures she was finally found to have Enterovirus Meningitus. This aswell as her premiturity has left molly a little behind in her general activitys but most of all caused her to have severe Plagiocelephy (flathead syndrome).

The only treatment for this is a STARband (helmet) which unfortunatly is not available on the NHS... so here we are asking for your help. No only will you be donating to our molly any funds raised over will be donated to headstart4babies to help other children with this syndrome.

Every little will help and again i thank you xxxx
