**Finished campaign**

Metehan’s SMA 1 treatment

Gofundme page

What do I do? I opened the above Gofundme page for Metehan (now handed over to the father). I also donated a symbolic amount to get the campaign started and shared it within my circles and local/national media. I – with support from academic colleagues – am also trying raise awareness for rare diseases and Zolgensma (see blog post)
