Story
I am jumping out of a plane on 4th February 2023 to raise money for the Lily Foundation in memory of Isla and all the other beautiful souls lost to this disease.
Isla's story.....Isla Ruby Harris was only 9 months old when she passed away from mitochondrial disease, something her family never heard. Isla was full of laughter, smiles and cheeky faces, she had a fake cough to get attention and a very infectious laugh.
On 21st June 2019 she was taken to hospital as she was lethargic and very sleepy. They quickly discovered she had fluid around her heart. After 5 weeks of testing they were told she had mitochondrial disease that had caused heart failure and they had to say goodbye to their beautiful girl.
Did you know that everyday a child is born in the UK who will develop this condition?
Currently there is no treatment or cure and it is life limiting?
In Isla's memory I want to help change this for other families. By supporting Team Isla Ruby and The Lily Foundation I can help support other families and fund research to find a cure.
Please help me if you can by donating some money and remembering a very special little girl.
