Will's craniosacral therapist has a new non profit organization called Universal Alliance For Family Health (which I am on the board of now)
Our First Project is to help a little girl named Finnley.
Finnley's whole story can be read at finnleykate.blogspot.com but I will tell you a little bit here.
Diagnosed with brain damage and on life support, newborn Finnley Kate was given only days to live. Powered by prayers and love, Finnley defied all odds, astounded doctors, and is a now a precious 3 1/2 year old girl. While Finnley has survived the odds and overcome many challenges, she has Cerebral Palsy and faces all the challenges that can come with it.
Finnley's mother and therapists work tirelessly to do all they can to help Finnley, but another miracle is needed to help her get closer to being able to walk, talk, see better, and battle seizures. They now believe this miracle has come.
Finnley has been accepted to participate in a research project where she will swim with a wild pod of dolphins off the coast of Spain this month. The research team has been coming from Germany to work with children from all over the world who suffer with Cerebral Palsy and Autism to this spot in the Atlantic ocean to work with the each winter over the last ten years. They have had great success in helping these children heal within their central nervous systems.
I have created a nice Christmas themed card that has Finnley's picture on the front (pictured above) and on the inside it has her story as appears above on the left-hand side of the card. On the right-hand side it says "A Donation Has Been Made In Your Name To Support Finnley's Opportunity To Swim With Dolphins In The Wild- A Therapeutic Experience That Can Provide Sonar Healing To Her Central Nervous System"
These cards would make a great gift for anyone this Christmas season - for teachers, extended relatives, hairdressers, as stocking stuffers etc. You can make a donation of any size, even $10 would be great.
If you are able to donate, please contact me (either by email or leave a comment on this blog post)
Checks can be made out to Donations Universal Alliance for Family Health and are Tax Deductible.
If you are not interested in the card or receipt, donations can easily be made on Finnley's webpage
Thank you for your support. By supporting Finnley you are supporting a miracle.
