Story
Our little miracle Marnie has survived pregnancy, birth and the first week of living. Not without scares, trials and tribulations along the way!
Born with Multicystic Polycystic Kidney Disease she has survived against all the odds - She has proved to be strong and determined... what a little fighter!
Marnie is trapped in a vicious cycle having been born prematurely with under developed lungs - meaning she can't have the dialysis thats needed to aid her kidney development and function.
When her lungs are strong enough there is a dialysis machine in Italy which is usable on tiny babies and infants just like Marnie . Our aim is to make this available for her and others.
This incredible baby has defied everyones greatest fears and she has gone the extra mile for us as a family by fighting to get this far. Her parents are my new heroes, their lives have been turned upside down in ways you can only imagine by being in this situation, yet they remain strong....not all heroes wear capes!
With the help of some fantastic charities they have been housed not far from they hospital so that they can support our miracle Marnie through every up and down however the pressures of everyday living weigh heavily on them through the process.
Not being able to face going back to work through fear that they may miss a milestone, good or bad, comes with its misfortunes and everyday things simply do not stop being needed. Rent, bills, even food is a hardship in a situation of thIs magnitude.
With a little bit of help from us all, we can alleviate some of these woes and make this journey one that is dedicated to all that matters, their little miracle.
Lets go the extra mile for Marnie as she has done for us so far!
We have 30 days to reach our target through this campaign so spread the word!
Please give within your means but rest assured that all help will be greatly appreciate, well received and used in the best way possible during the next several months 🌹
