AIUTIAMO Valeria! - HELP Valeria!

Hello to everybody Friends...this time i'm writing for ask you an help.
I will invite you to visit this site (Sorry! only in italian) www.comitatoprovaleria.it
You can make a donation/payment on postal account written at the bottom

Ciao a tutti Amici...questa volta vi scrivo per chiedervi un aiuto.
Vi invito a visitare il sito www.comitatoprovaleria.it

Due parole su chi è VALERIA
Valeria nasce il 02/08/2006, in anticipo di 6 settimane rispetto alla data prevista per il parto; un parto cesareo programmato visto che Valeria era podalica.La gravidanza ha avuto un decorso normale, senza alcuna avvisaglia di quello che poi si sarebbe rivelato un problema serio! Nessuna ecografia mise infatti in evidenza il “piccolo” problema di Valeria; una vasta lesione cerebrale le cui cause sono tutt’ora sconosciute che le ha letteralmente “mangiato” buona parte dell’emisfero di destra lasciando intatto solo una residua componente dell’emisfero sinistro ed una piccola componente del lobo temporale di destra.Una malattia che non ha un nome ne’ una definizione ma la cui conseguenza è il ritardo mentale e motorio comunemente definito come “tetraparesi spastica”.
Posso garantire IO STESSO che non si tratta di una bufala...è una cosa seria...Abbiamo bisogno di raccogliere 36.000€ per curare Valeria...
Ho sentito obiezioni e menate in merito a:
" SONO GIUSTE E CORRETTE QUESTO TIPO DI CURE...??" ecc...
beh...io chiedo a tutti...OGNUNO PER QUELLO CHE PUO'..
...sperando che tanto affetto e tanto amore siano più forti del denaro e diano una spinta e una possibilità in più a Valeria.

Se volete potete fare un versamento sul conto corrente postale:
