Even a crumb of bread threatens her life! The fate of little Giulia moved "Krone" readers. They opened their hearts and want to make therapy possible for the girl. 

"It's an incredible amount, we are so grateful," Rainer and Claudia Seitz beamed. They told the story of their daughter Giulia (2) in the "Krone". The girl has a variety of allergies. Her life is in danger every day. A therapy in the USA costing 140,000 euros could help her. Krone readers did not miss a beat - and donated almost 35,500 euros for the family from Eugendorf. 

The local soccer club also launched a fundraising campaign for the two-year-old. This raised an additional 17,000 euros. With this substantial financial injection, the family has already been able to start the US therapy. "A total of 14 hospital stays are planned in the USA," says mom Claudia. The treatment would extend over a period of almost four years. "We'll do it as long as we can financially. The costs for flights, therapy and the special food are enormous," says Rainer Seitz.

A normal life is not yet possible for the family, who live in constant fear. Giulia does not tolerate milk, eggs, fish, nuts, mustard, cereals or soy. Even the smallest crumb of these can trigger severe shocks or massive skin rashes. Life-threatening cardiovascular arrest can occur within a few minutes. "After the therapy, Giulia could finally eat anything," say her parents.
