Our little girl Bonnie was diagnosed with early onset scoliosis at 11 months old. Scoliosis is curvature of the spine, more commonly seen in teenagers. The curve worsens with each growth spurt so it is important it is treated quickly to allow her organs to grow correctly. She is now 2 years old and her scoliosis has got significantly worse. Without intervention, it will stop her organs like her lungs growing normally and she will be in constant pain.

Due to long waiting lists and lack of treatment options in this country, we are taking Bonnie to Philadelphia, America to treat her early onset scoliosis in the form of Mehta casting, a type of casting that improves the curve of her spine. We will be travelling to Philadelphia every 8 weeks to get the casts changed for the foreseeable future, potentially the next two or three years. This treatment will improve Bonnie's life significantly.

We are very lucky that the treatment is free - we are raising money to help with costs that come with travelling to America every 8 weeks.

We will be extremely grateful for any donations towards these costs that will change Bonnie's life forever
