An eat what you want, pay what you want dinner and auction will be held later this month to raise funds to help a six-year-old and her family with medical expenses.
“Hope for Maddie” will be held at the Milan Community Center the night of August 19th from 5 to 10 o’clock.
Food will be served starting at 5 o’clock, and the auction will begin at 8 o’clock. There will also be games, face painting, a dunk tank, and prizes throughout the evening.
Maddie has been diagnosed with Guillain-Barre Syndrome and Autoimmune Autonomic Ganglionopathy, a rare disease. She goes to monthly doctor appointments and receives treatment.
The family’s next option is for Maddie to see a doctor in Wisconsin or Texas who specializes in the disease.
There is no cure at this time, but treatment can make her symptoms more tolerable.
