Biographies

Ariana-Leilani
“One in a Million” Severe Chronic Neutropenia (Suspicious& Untreated)
A 9-year old dual German/ USA citizen has been named “The Little Ambassador” currently is in Washington, DC with a life-threatening very rare (one in a million people) blood and bone marrow disorder called “severe chronic neutropenia”.
For 3 years she has been on the Severe Chronic Neutropenia International Registry (SCNIR) with less than 1000 people world-wide. For over 4 years her father and his medical colleague have denied her the only non-surgical treatment, a medicine, G-CSF or “neupogen” that is free to her. Yet she is given psychotropic medication for ADHD that is secured at the hospital on a monthly basis. Untreated SCN can lead to toxic shock, loss or limbs or loss of life.
All children / adults with SCN who did not receive neupogen have died.

Ms. Homarya Sellier
(Source: http://innocenceendanger.org/en/about-us/)
An international, non-profit association created by a group of citizens on 15 April 1999, at the initiative of the UNESCO Director-General, Federico Mayor, and under the presidency of Ms. Homayra Sellier, in response to the recommendations of the UNESCO expert meeting convened in January 1999 on Sexual Abuse of Children, Child Pornography and Paedophilia on the Internet, in order to pursue the objectives of the Action Plan adopted by the experts to combat sexual abuse of children. Since 15 April 2000, Innocence in Danger was formalised and operated independently of any other organisation. Innocence in Danger operates in 29 countries throughout the world, with partners who share the same objectives. IID thus brings together militants, Internet specialists, jurists, political decision-makers, businessmen, media and national action groups to sensitise world opinion on the increasing problems of paedo-criminality.

Innocence in Danger represents an action force to sensitise and catalyse, educate and inform governmental and non-governmental bodies, European and international intergovernmental bodies, business enterprises, and the general public – schools, community associations, the youth. Aside from those persons explicitly listed on our website as officials of the bureaux of Innocence in Danger associations in England, France, Switzerland, Germany, USA, Canada and Columbia.

Ms. Amanda
Parent of Child with Neutropenia
Amanda is a mother with a child with Neutropenia. She has learned all that she can to save her child. The points she will focus on are:

1. Fear and devastation, learning about Neupogen gave us relief.


2. Bacteria inside our bodies not being regulated is vastly more dangerous than the "germs" of the outside world, which is why Neupogen is so important - good hygiene isn't enough. Profilactic antibiotics aren't enough


3. I have met others individuals from the US and England who have fought for Neupogen, often includes finding a new doctor who is willing to learn about the disease. A few are still fighting for Neupogen. This is what a normal parent does when they learn their child is neutropenic. First step is do what you can to protect your child, second step is to determine the cause. We have doctors that acted immediately on both.
