Timmy is an inspiration. He first became ill when he was 4 years old. After many tests he was diagnosed with Mitochondrial Disease. We all have Mitochondria in everyone of our cells. They create the energy we need to function properly. In children like Timmy, theirs do not work properly. Mitochondrial Disease is a life limiting, degenerative, evil illness. Currently there is no real treatment or cure. Timothy is now looked after by specialist Mitochondrial Disease teams in Sheffield and Newcastle. Sadly there isn't a treatment or cure for Mitochondrial Disease, Timothy takes a Mito cocktail.. it contains various vitamins which are thought to help his symptoms. Hes fed through a tube into his intestines and uses a wheelchair to get around. He is amazing, he never ever complains.. hes a true warrior! The Lily Foundation support the family and fund vital research to find a cure for Timmy an all those effected. Please donate to we can help them reach their goal quicker.
