Medical Supplies for Max "Mayor of the NICU"
Donation protected
Baby Max was born with a rare genetic disorder called Congenital Sodium Diarrhea, a condition that prevents him from absorbing nutrients. There are only 50 reported cases globally, with Max being the only one with his specific genetic mutation. Max spent most of his first year of life in the NICU where he earned the nickname of "Mayor of the NICU" by doctors and nurses as he experienced all of his first milestones there. His parents, Dan Do and Kim Nguyen has been by his side everyday as he continuosly fought and beat the odds against him. Max was able to leave the hospital after 11 months to go home to meet his big sister! Max will still need to get nutrients through IVs daily and will need an at-home nurse to care for him. Any contributions will go towards Max's medicine, medical care, medical supplies, and equipment. To learn more about Max's journey, please check out the link below. We thank you for watching Max's story; your support means the world to us.
