Emi need us!

Bay of Plenty

Emilia is our 4 year old niece, she is the youngest daughter of Rafa's brother.

She was diagnosed with a tumor called an aneurysmal bone cyst the size of a tennis ball that is too big for a child of her age, this is pressing on her spine, causing her a lot of pain and putting her life at risk.

Our little girl has been hospitalized many times and undergoing tests to confirm the diagnosis and rule out others.

There is a treatment called embolization which basically consists of cutting the feeding pathway of this tumor so that it does not continue to grow and to be able to remove it. This treatment has to be done now because she is in a lot of pain.

Rafa's family in Chile is collecting money and selling raffle numbers to be able to pay for the treatment and tests.

Emilia needs us, that is why we created this page to help raise money so that Emi can start her treatment now.

Please help us to help Emilia.
