Eloise was born on May 4th, 2012 as a healthy baby. She was 2 months old when she had to go to the hospital for the firs time with a convulsions and low blood sugar. After one week of giving her IV-glucose, she was sent home with a special Diet, feeding her every 2 hours, and adding corn syrup to her bottles. Then, 2 months latter she was admited again in the hospital with seisures and low-blood sugar, blood tests were performed to check on her metabolic system, and also insuline level. That's when the journey began, we looked for a hospital in the US to treat her, and look for the correct diagnose. We had contact with a Doctor in CHOP (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia) who guided us in the kind of tests we needed to perform, unfortunatelly treatment there was USD 200,000.00. We kept looking and found the Uniersity Hospital of Greifswald in Germany, they helped performing the genetic tests needed and found that Eloise suffers from Congenital Hyperinsulinism, she has small lesions or tumors in her pancreas that produce many more insuline than needed, which causes her blood sugar to be low. At this time she needs medication 3 times a day in order to have her blood sugar stabled. The cure is to have a PET-SCAN to locate the exact place of the tumor, and then surgery. She needs to travel to Germany, we do not have such treatment in Guatemala, where we live. Cost for treatment is 45,000 Euros. Thank you for any donation you´ll be able to make in order to have Eloise cured. God bless!
