When a large post bus stopped at the front door in early October, Rebekka Loosli and her family said that someone wanted to ask for directions. When Röbi Koller left the Swiss television program “Happy Day”, they fell from all the clouds. “That was indescribable, we couldn’t believe it,” says Loosli, moved.
Ava has a muscle disorder
Rebekka Loosli and Martin Zweifel live with their four children in Besenbüren. His twins Ava and Lia were born almost two years ago, three months earlier. While Lia is developing normally, Ava has cystic periventricular leukomalacia. This severe impairment in the brain means that Ava cannot move her muscles freely, has difficulty eating, and has severely impaired eyesight (AZ reported).
Last September, the family publicly shared their fate for the first time. They started a request for donations to fund special stem cell therapy for Ava in Bangkok, Thailand.
This had never happened before with “Happy Day”
The story of Ava, but above all the strength and confidence with which her family faces this situation, touches over and over again the friends of Loosli and Zweifel. That is why they contacted the “Happy Day” program independently. “That has never happened before. We received four different letters for a family,” moderator Röbi Koller said on the show last Saturday.
Koller surprised the family with a field trip and lots of gifts to make their day to day easier. After a tour on the old Postbus, the family was allowed to have lunch at Muri’s hospital and there they received their first gift: the hospital will deliver a meal to the family every week for a year.
An unimaginably large load is eliminated
Meanwhile, in Besenbüren: The television crew and family friends set up a new sandbox in the garden and installed special lamps in the house whose light allows Ava to better perceive her surroundings. And to top it all, there were plane tickets for the whole family to Bangkok, for Ava and her mother even in business class. “It’s wonderful. It was especially difficult for our daughter Emma that Ava and I were away for so long. She is relieved that she is allowed to come with us,” Loosli says.
Meanwhile, they had already received two meals from the Muri nursing home. “The burden this removes is unimaginable.” The family will probably never forget their “Happy Day”: “We had a fantastic day. The team was very cordial and responded to all of our needs, ”Loosli said gratefully.
