We need to know what's wrong

After multiple iron infusions and blood transfusions my girls still can't live a normal life.

They all have severe anemia and no answers. Doctors just keep giving iron infusions and blood transfusions and never give us reasons to why my girls iron is severely low. My girls can't attend school regularly due to the fatigue, often pass out and struggle with daily living.

I'm wanting to raise funds to get them care privately as the public system is failing them but can't do it without help.

I have 3 girls with the same problem, their ages are 16,14 and 12. I feel it is genetic and needs looking into properly so they don't end up with no answers

Please help me get the funds to help my girls

Use of funds

All funds will be put towards taking the girls to a private clinic to get further testing and treatment

First consultation 13 November 2023

Thought id give an update .

Had the girls to a private specialist on Friday and the tests are starting to determine what blood disorder they have. At this stage they are being tested for Von Willebrand disease as well as a few others. So glad to finally have the ball rolling. Every little bit helps so please keep the donations coming in so we can try and keep things as normal as we can while we travel to specialist and the girls under go tests. Thanks again for helping us to get the first part done.
