Save Purnell Today

Just before Mother’s Day, our smiley, gentle Purnell was diagnosed with a rare and fatal genetic disease called Niemann-Pick Type A (think baby Alzheimer's). There is currently no available treatment and if nothing is done, it is unlikely Nell will make it to his 3rd birthday.

There is gene therapy treatment on the horizon that is within reach and the sole roadblock is funding. Time is of the utmost essence and we urgently need your help raising the funds by OCT 30 to give Nell the best chance to live.

We are calling on the generosity of family, friends, neighbors and strangers to help us #SavePurnell

With your help, we can reach this goal together and cure this disease once and for all.

Thank you all so much,
Wylder Nation Foundation

THERE IS A CLEAR PATH TO TREATMENT

2. Final safety studies
3. Get FDA approval for investigational drug
4. Start clinical trial
