We are writing to you with a request for help for little Amеlia, who has been diagnosed with a rare and severe genetic disorder - Zellweger syndrome. This disease, unfortunately, has no cure, and most children with this diagnosis do not live to the age of two. But Amеlia is a real fighter! Despite all the difficulties, she continues to fight and thanks to the efforts of her parents and regular rehabilitation she is making progress in her development.
Zellweger syndrome is a rare genetic disease that affects the nervous system, liver, kidneys and other organs. It is caused by mutations in genes responsible for the functioning of peroxisomes, cellular structures necessary for metabolism. Children with this diagnosis often face severe symptoms such as seizures, muscle weakness, visual and hearing impairment, and developmental delays.
Amеlia was born healthy, but in her first month of life, she began having seizures and was in a pre-comatose state. Doctors were unable to make an accurate diagnosis for a long time, and it wasn't until she was three years old that this rare condition was identified. Despite the disappointing prognosis, Amеlia continues to fight. Her parents are doing everything they can to provide her with quality rehabilitation to help her develop and improve her quality of life.
Amеlia's parents are asking for your support to continue to pay for the rehabilitation programs, medical procedures and specialized nutrition needed to keep her healthy. Every contribution you make is a chance for Amеlia
