Help give me a voice please :-)

Hello, i am Melody and I'm 11 years old. I was born with a rare genetic condition called CASK gene deletion. This means that I cannot walk and that I am non-verbal.

I attend Woodlands school in Surrey which is a special school and they have just let me use an 'eye gaze' which means I can now communicate and let people know how cheeky I really am!

My mummy and daddy would really love me to have one at home with a Grid 3 Smart Box which has a child's voice included. This means I could actually tell my mummy, for the first time in 11 years, that I love her. I know it will make her cry, but with the help of my grandma I really want to do this.

I think it's a bit like the one that Rob Burrows has, but it won't be my voice as I've never spoken.

Thank you very much for reading and hopefully adding to my fund. :-)
