ReWalk Bionic Suit Fund

Donation protected
My name is Mark Anthony Sweeney and when i was 2 i was diagnosed with Spinafida Occulta, Diastematomyelia and a Thoracic arachnoid Cyst. When i was 3 i underwent surgery to correct my diastematomyelia in Southern General Hospital in Glasgow however surgical mistakes were made and since then alot more issues have occured however when i was 12 years old Scar Tissue had formed in my spine and when doctors at Alder Hey Childrens Hospital tried to remove it it had already caused damage to my spinal chord leaving me paralyzed from the waist down and with little function to my bladder and bowel and since then i have suffered from Scoliosis and underwent several years of physiotherapy to rehabilitate with no success, since i paralyzed 5 years ago i have felt excluded from the rest of the world and my family have done the best they can to help me through it. Now the US have invented a bionic-Suit to help Parplegics walk again for sale at £63K but there is now a facility in Birmingham who are offering the same technology  and it is my hope that we can raise enough funds to make my dream of travelling to this facility and making my dream of walking a reality at last
