21.01.2022 Motors Tasmania, Parmic, Woolworths, Variety Tasmania and many local businesses, community groups and individuals are joining forces to raise $80,000 to support Isla after her life-saving surgery for Rasmussens Encephalitis. Please join us at Hobart Motors Holden Muster from the 3rd-6th September. Holden Cars through the ages will be on display on the 3rd-6th September and we will be hosting a sausage sizzle on the 5th and 6th September. Isla has a very rare disease called ...Rasmussens Encephalitis. This disease impacts one hemisphere of the brain, where inflammation progressively destroys brain cells, resulting in multiple seizures, loss of vision, cognitive impairment, hemiparesis and if left untreated, the child could die. The only definitive treatment is a hemispherectomy (which is a disconnection of the right-hand side of her brain). This surgery comes with irreversible consequences, including the possibility that Isla will be vision impaired and partially paralysed. Her family have opted to have the surgery at the beginning of September in Melbourne. To donate to the Isla fundraising and find out more about Rasmussens Encephalitis visit: https://tasfundraising.variety.org.au/support-a-fundra/isla

The fund aims to provide families with severely disabled children, who are going through periods of additional need or financial distress, with a financial gift to help relieve some of the pressures they are facing. It is with grateful thanks to our supporters that Variety Tas has been able to assist this Tassie family. Please donate today, so that we may help empower other Tassie kids.
