Meet Anri van Tonder

She is the most phenomenal 15 year old girl, born with CHARGE SYNDROME. She is a beloved daughter and a beautiful sister, definitly her family's pride and joy. A go getter with a boost for life, loves music and dancing who desperately needs a operation after she has been diagnosed with SEVERE SCOLIOSIS.

We are shaken by the results of numerous doctor appointments, but determind to put up the best fight possible. She has been gasping through pain and discomfort since birth.

Due to this disease she is unable to speak, but her strong personality comes with extreme mumbles and very clear hand signals, we have all gotten to understand. The BEST one is her hugs, it definitely makes any persons day better when she throws her arms around you with all that love just waiting to burst out.

Its unfortunate that due to lack of communication she is permanently required to wear diapers.

Unlike most parents wishes and dreams for their children to one day become a lawyer, firefighter, pilot, police, beautician, airhostess ect...OUR DREAMS FOR HER is to have this complicated surgery to prevent her from becoming permanently paralyzed.

As headstrong parents with few savings or Medical Insurance the bills in SA are just to high to do it without the help of all our loved ones and unknown potential donations.

We hereby ask you to open your hearts towards this cause and please help us raise funds towards hospital bills, doctor bills, scans, blood test,nappies etc...

We thank each and everyone for every last sent. We are extremely grateful you have no idea how much this will help.
