The uncles of Nicolò, “a beautiful and very sweet one-year-old boy born with a rare genetic disease, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, characterized by severe immune deficiency,” have launched a fundraiser on GoFundMe.
“For Nicolò – they say from San Prisco, in the province of Caserta – even a simple cold or a normal bump can be dangerous”.
“Thanks to the collaboration with Telethon – write Claudia and Benedetto Adragna – finally today research gives him access to Gene Therapy at the San Raffaele Institute in Milan, the only treatment available other than stem cell transplant from a donor”.
“For this reason – they explain – Nicolò, his mother and his father will have to move to Milan for at least six months”.
“Despite the immense joy of his parents for the potential solution to the disease – they continue – they will be forced to face very difficult months in which the isolation and worry in the hospital will be combined with the economic difficulty of being in a city like Milan for such a long time, requiring expectations from work and consequently significant reductions in salary”.
“For this reason – they conclude – we are here to ask for your support, whatever it may be. Heartfelt thanks to all those who will intervene with a simple gesture of help”.
The campaign has received over 250 donations reaching 6.800 euros. It can be reached at the link https://gf.me/v/c/5ft6/una-cura-damore-per-nicolo
