Lets help Ró get the transport car :)

Ró is 5 years old and has cerebral palsy (spastic tetraparesis) and epilepsy. His condition does not allow him to move around alone and therefore he needs an adapted stroller.

Rodrigo, better known as Ró, is a 5-year-old boy full of joy and willpower :)

Ró is extremely premature at 27 weeks, with the sequelae of prematurity (and possibly bacterial meningitis that he still had in neonatology) being cerebral palsy (spastic tetraparesis - partial loss of function of the 4 limbs) and later, after viral encephalitis, he joined the epilepsy to the already complex picture. But his condition brings limitations and at this moment with his growth, one of the limitations is mobility. Normally it is carried on the lap or in a baby stroller, but it is becoming too big for both of them, and in the lap the biggest problem is the weight because we are never too big to hold. In addition, so-called normal strollers are inappropriate as they do not allow you to have the best posture due to a lack of support.

As a family, we have managed to have funds to support his therapies and support materials, in 2023 alone it exceeded 21 thousand euros, but unfortunately we were unable to respond to everything, at least in the time he needed, and that is why we created this fundraiser so that we can help to provide him with a transport stroller suitable to his size and needs as soon as possible, which costs around €4400

Any amount above this will be sent to Ró's therapy account.

Rodrigo, better known as Ró, is a 5-year-old boy full of joy and willpower :)

Ró is extremely premature at 27 weeks, with the sequelae of prematurity (and possibly bacterial meningitis that he still had in neonatology) being cerebral palsy (spastic tetraparesis - partial loss of function of the 4 limbs) and later, after viral encephalitis, he joined the epilepsy to the already complex picture.

The willpower and resilience he has in total, we are only responsible for finding the means. And right now we are counting on all of you to join the Ró team and work together with us to give you the best possible.

Budget and due dates

As he grows, it becomes increasingly urgent to acquire a chair so that he can walk and go to therapy or go to school as comfortably as possible and with the best posture in order to avoid future problems.

The quote is valid until just over mid-July, after which it may be increased (as it is rare), even after being ordered the stroller takes around 60 days to be delivered.

In short, the sooner we can ask, the better it will be for him :)
