Help Anna needs Xolair injections!

Help a 9 year old lead a normal life without allergic reactions

Christchurch, Canterbury

Our beautiful 9 year old suffers from idiopathic allergic reactions and is beyond being treated with prednisone, antihistamines and needs Xolair treatment. Pharmac turned us down because “nobody under 12” has this condition. She will be sitting in class (or in other life situations) and suddenly have a reaction which causes her distress, her teachers and classmates stress & ultimately one of us has to go and get her from school and she is now missing so much school. All Anna wants is to be normal and not have allergic reactions all the time (every 10 days - 2 weeks). Any help towards funding trips to Auckland (from Chch) and paying $989 towards each injection (10in total) would be greatly appreciated! Please help a little girl get her life back.

Another round  12 June 2025

Another round of treatment … Anna has done so well taking it all in her stride. It’s tough to watch her when she is lying on the couch recovering and she doesn’t want to do anything but she is looking forward to have energy again so she can dance again 🥰
