Story
Hello all and thank you for taking the time to read my story!!
I live in a 3 storey house with my partner and 4 children... recently we recieved some upsetting news that my partner and 3 of my children aged 5/3/2 have been diagnosed with a rare yet very serious heart condition called Anderson-Tawil Syndrome, alot of you would not of heard of this as there is only 100 people world wide with this so i would advise you all to have alook online. This condition has nasty symptoms of having episodes of tempory paralysis were some areas of your body become paralysed for up to an hour!!! Also my family have suffered fits and black outs and muscle weakness! We have managed to hopefully get funding for our local school to have a defibbrilator and we are now setting this page up to taise funds for one for our home. My children and partner are now on betablockers for the rest of there lives!! Also have to take special care on what they do... the reason for needing a defibrillator at home is because my children are now at SIGNIFICANT RISK OF SUDDEN DEATH!! Yes sudden death-Scary isnt it? As a parent i want to beable to keep my childten and partner safe and having been on a first aid course and knowing that in our situation a defib is alot better than just plain CPR!!! please share my story and help raisr the fund to possibly save lives if needed....
if the funds are raised and when we have a defib it will be registered on the ALERTER app eitch will allow members of the public use it if they ever need to!!!
Thank you for reading xx
