Story
Ella has been struggling with pain for the last few years. Earlier this year her pain significantly increased and she lost a large proportion of her mobility. This forced her to give up her beloved ballet as she could no longer dance without experiencing excrutiating pain.
We have finally received a diagnosis for her and she has Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA). This causes inflammed joints, reduced flexibility and mobility, severe pain and stiffness. She is finding it increasingly difficult to undertake normal every day tasks even including eating. Her biggest issue is managing the stairs ro her bedroom. Whilst we have the space to move her room downstairs we do not currently have the finances to create a useable space for her.
it is extremely upsetting to witness her crawling up the stairs or literally not being able to come back down. Please help us to make her life easier and more bearable by donating to our fund! Thanks in advance 😄

6 years agoWe are desperately trying to finish Ella’s room as her pain is exacerbated by having to go up two flights of stairs. Thank you to those who have helped. It truly is horrible to watch her in so much pain all of the time.

6 years agoElla is now on crutches due to the severe pain she is experiencing which means walking up the stairs is an absolute nightmare for her. We are working hard to get her moved ASAP so thank you for any donation you give to make this happen for her 😄
