Hello I'm Lana. I am 11 years old. I live at home with my mum and pet parakeet Bobby. I amgenerally a happy girl who enjoys being outside, going to the seaside, seeing friends, swimming and even going to school. I have achieved so much in 11 years more than the professionals believed I would and I am not ready to stop achieving.

I have cerebral palsy which affects my legs and right arm and I also have epilepsy. I was lucky enough to raise the funds for SDR surgery to release the spasticity in my legs in the hopes of taking steps one day. The surgery took place in May 2023 and was successful in releasing the spasticity but unfortunately uncovered a condition called dystonia in my feet causing my ankles to twist and arch to collapse so standing and walking was put on hold.

I have just had a major foot reconstruction and currently I am still in a leg cast but the surgeon is hopeful that once healed I should be able to start working on strengthening my legs to bear weight and potentially take steps one day.

The money raised will go towards any therapies that are deemed appropriate for improving my strength and stamina and any specialist equipment that will both aid the therapies and or give me a better independent quality of life be that walking aids or power wheelchair or anything else that will benefit my future.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.
