Family aims to raise £250,000 for child's brain injury rehabilitationRSS Feed
The family of a child with a brain injury are hoping to raise £250,000 to pay for his rehabilitation and to set up a permanent facility for other children in a similar predicament.
Kyle Beere was a fit and active 12-year-old when he suddenly fell ill, with doctors initially suspecting meningitis but subsequently diagnosing a rare condition known as arteriovenous malformations, the South Wales Echo has reported.
Surgery was carried out to remove a blood clot from his brain, but complications resulted in Kyle's family being given a choice: let Kyle die or allow doctors to operate, with the risk that it could result in severe brain damage.
The operation went ahead, but Kyle now faces the challenge of rehabilitation.
With the nearest appropriate rehabilitation centre being in Surrey - some 160 miles away from Kyle's Cardiff home - his family is now trying to raise the funds to provide a brain injury rehabilitation service for children in Wales.
Arteriovenous malformations are defects of the circulatory system that are generally believed to arise during foetal development or soon after birth.
