Story

Baby Mazie was born in Dubai on 1 November 2020 through urgent C-section and immediately admitted to NICU with respiratory distress. The newborn was found to have renal impairment and diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease. Mazie needs daily albumin transfusions and life-long care to manage her condition. 

Barely two months old, Mazie has been in and out of hospital since her birth undergoing a number of medical tests from blood tests, Xrays, ultrasounds, blood transfusion and surgery.

Mazie’s mother and father, originally from the Philippines, are both nurses and have lived in Dubai since 2017. They have depleted their medical insurance and do not have the funds required to support Mazie’s life-saving treatment.

“It breaks our hearts to see our daughter in her condition. As parents, all we ever want is for our daughter to live a normal life. We know that with her condition it will be hard but we pray that through the treatment she will be able to live and grow as normal as possible.”
