Tyler's brain sends spastic signals to his legs causing him to have stiff and jerky movements making him fall a lot, tire quickly and to use a walker. This operation cuts the nerves that send the spastic signals to his legs. After the operation, with physiotherapy he will be able to move and play like other 4 year olds.

Update for 10/10/2013 10 October 2013

I am updating the total amount we are looking at fundraising, reducing the amount from $80,000 to $62500 because of a misunderstanding I had with the hospital in America. When I set the target amount of $80,000 I believed that we had to go to America for a post op check at 4 months. This however is only for people that live in the USA. We have also decided that I will travel by myself with Tyler to have the operation and thus reducing the cost of the trip a little bit more. Thank you for your support and donations. regards Wendy
