Just4Children are fundraising to provide Lukas with the ongoing therapy he needs to thrive and to give him the best quality of life and allow him to live up to his full potential.

In 2017, Lukas become unwell with flu type symptoms. The flu virus attacked his body so much, his heart became damaged resulting in myocarditis.

He was transferred from his local hospital to the specialist children’s hospital in Glasgow. He was so unwell he went into cardiac arrest, needing 30 minutes of CPR, before being placed on an ECMO (heart and lung bypass) machine, saving his life.

During his two weeks in ICU, we received the devastating news that Lukas had suffered a stroke following the cardiac arrest. Four months
followed in the neuro rehabilitation ward where he had to relearn how to talk, eat and move.

Lukas has worked so since his stroke and can now stand, and
walk a little, with assistance. His goal is to be able to run around the garden with his younger sister, something we all take for granted.

Any donations very much appreciated.
