Story
The Barrington James Team need your help.
We're on a mission to raise as much money as possible for a little girl called Isabella so her family can ‘create memories’.
THE STORY: Isabella is 2 years old and has no right ventricle in her heart (which is the chamber that pumps blood to the lungs). This is a life limiting disease which so far has seen Isabella have open heart surgery at just 5 days old. Unfortunately she then had a cardiac arrest at 7 days old, requiring a further operation/heart massage and another open heart procedure 2 days later. At 6 weeks she underwent surgery to clean a blood infection in her chest & rewire her sternum - the blood infection caused the chest wires to snap, breaking her little ribs. All before she was even 2 months old - what a little soldier :)
She has spent countless nights in hospital, having hundreds of blood tests and is still using a tube for feeding. The next stage is planned at around 4/5 years old, which should see her through until she needs another new heart later in life.
We can’t even imagine the strain, heartache and emotion that the whole family has gone through yet they are so strong. They take time to give back to the people that care for their daughter and now we’re giving back to them.
All of her care is provided for but Isabella has to spend an awful lot of time in hospital, so making memories when she is not in care while giving her older brothers a sense of normality is really important - and this is where we come in.
Please generously. No amount is too small and every donation will be greatly appreciated. We’re aiming high.
OUR GOAL IS TO RAISE ENOUGH MONEY TO SEND ISABELLA AND HER FAMILY ON A ONCE IN A LIFETME TRIP TO DISNEYWORLD, ORLANDO. LET’S DO IT WITH YOUR HELP.
