Lexi Conquering Chiari

About this campaign

Our 5 year old daughter, Lexi, is having complete brain decompression surgery on May 22nd to treat Chiari Malformation Type 1. This is caused by a small or misshaped skull. This causes the skull to put pressure on the brain, forcing it downward and into the spinal canal. Her Chiari is causing Neurological issues that is causing her not to be able to live the carefree life of a 5 year old. We will be staying in NYC for about 15 days and are raising funds to help cover travel and lodging so that we can focus our full attention on our little girl while she is recovering.
