Supporting Madison's "Open Heart Surgeries"

On 26-3-2009 Madison Skyla-Lee Drake was born, a few minor problems through the pregnancy, but nothing to prepare young Mum Danyelle for the life threatening condition that her liitle girl was born with, at 12 days old, little Madison passed away in her Mother's arms, miraculously Madison was brought back and rushed to Starship, to have emergency surgery performed on her little body, her "Aorta" was so narrow, blood was barely passing through, Mum and baby stayed in Auckland a week, Madison's condition was explained to Danyelle, luckily she has her Mum for support, as there was so much medical jargon to take in, and this was the beginning of a very long road ahead, for both Mother and Daughter, at age 2, little Madison had to go back to Starship, for "open heart bypass" surgery.

Danyelle has struggled with being on her own with a child who has "Multiple Heart Conditions", she was to start partime work once Madison turned 5, but with "open Heart Surgery" looming, and Madison had been troubled by "Glue Ear" and Tonsilitis, which meant she needed to have her tonsils and adenoids out recently, plus grommits put in, Danyelle decided it would be in her Daughter's best interest, to be a "Fulltime Mum", which was not an easy decision financially, but, as usual, Madison comes first.

If through this page, we could ease some of the financial burden that Danyelle has to struggle with, daily, it would be such a relief, if she could just focus on getting her little girl through the surgeries ahead, rather than worrying day and night, about how she can support her little girl, financially.

Danyelle doesn't have a lot of money and the costs associated with having an unwell child are substancial, she is Madison's full-time carer, any and all money raised, will directly benefit madison, it will be used for;

Food-Power-Parking-travel to and from DR-Specialist-Hospitals, Medication, food supplements, the costs associated with living away from home when Madison needs her surgeries or her Specialist visits, .

Daniel has a good network of family and friends here in Invercargill, who are giving her emotional support, but I would love to make her financial situation less stressful, to the point that she can afford to give madison a treat or a trip out, once she is well enough, as this brave little girl deserves to get a trip to the Zoo, after she recovers from yet another painful surgery.
