In February 2023, you became Princess Raine's hero. She was suspected of having Hirschsprung disease and needed a biopsy to establish the correct diagnosis. Unfortunately, a fecaloma, a hardened stool mass, obstructed the procedure. A fecaloma needed to be cleaned so that a doctor could reach the tissues for a biopsy. Both of these procedures were way beyond this family’s budget. You stepped in and gave this sweet child a chance for a brighter future.
The biopsy confirmed Princess Raine's battle with Hirschsprung's disease. An expensive surgical intervention that the family couldn't bear alone is her only chance!
Many mothers are familiar with the straining, crying, and irritability of a constipated baby and an indescribable feeling of relief when a baby finally goes. For Arneth, Princess Raine's mom, such relief is unknown because her three-year-old girl cannot pass stool on her own. She never pooped on her own.
Princess Raine's life hinges on this critical surgery, the sole remedy for Hirschsprung's disease. Left untreated, it can prove fatal for children. Please watch the following video to learn more about Princess Raine’s condition.
We cannot stress enough how critical this situation is. The good news is, with your help, Princess Raine can have the surgery she needs to lead a normal life.
