Seizure medicine

Ibtisam needs to take medication to prevent triggers of seizures in the brain.

Feeding tube extension kit

Ibtisam Mustafa has a Gbutton inserted in his stomach to facilitate direct feedings to his stomach in order to increase his weight and get ready for next surgery. Currently, he cannot take in large quantities of food orally as his head is too large and he cannot sit up. We need to change his feeding tube every week along with a new feeding bag.

Special Baby Formula

Ibtisam Mustafa is on special high calorie formula to get his weight to increase since he is not able to eat much orally

10 Feeding bags

Ibtisam Mustafa has a Gbutton inserted in his stomach to facilitate direct feedings to his stomach in order to increase his weight and get ready for next surgery. We fill the food into feeding bags and pump it into his stomach. We need to change his feeding bag everyday to decrease risk of infection. Each bag costs $5.

Physical therapy sessions for rehabilitation

Ibtisam Mustafa needs physical therapy as a rehabilitation service to get his unused muscles moving and active. Currently he spends his days laying on the bed as his head is too large. Post surgery , the head size has reduced and he needs 3 sessions per week of physical therapy. Each session costs $100.

MRI costs

Ibtisam Mustafa needs an MRI to check if the extra fluid that has built up in his brain is draining well post surgery and to check if his head size is reducing as intended

Firefly Upsee Kit

To help movement of hands and limbs and to get Ibtisam Mustafa in a vertical postion, we need this harness. Currently he lays on his back all day long due to his head size

EEG

Ibtisam Mustafa needs an EEG to monitor his brain activity over 24 hours to study the cause of his seizures in an attempt to reduce them and prevent further brain damage.
