The schoolboy needs years of more ops and must go to America for €20,000 treatment
Brave scoliosis patient Noah Quish has come through his 15th operation but he will need further €20,000 treatment in America this summer.
She told the Irish Mirror: "Noah had spinal surgery to have his rods lengthened and to have a review on his hip. Surgery went well and he should have a break now for another six months. As Noah grows, he outgrows the rods, so they have to be lengthened every few months. They will have to be repeated until his teens and then they can perform a spinal fusion.
Doctors have invited Noah Quish to Boston to undergo vital treatment in 2025 – but his family needs the public’s support to get him there. A fundraiser has been set up on GoFundMe called Noah's Long Road To Recovery. Noah, from Limerick, was born in March 2017 and diagnosed with a heart condition, severe obstructive Laryngomalacia, scoliosis, malformation of the brain, severe sleep apnoea, a chromosome deletion, meningitis, and autism. He needed open heart surgery at just four months old and is described by his family as their "little miracle."
