Every day for nearly 18 years, Alessandra Fabrello has been a medical caregiver for her son, on top of being his mom.
“It is almost impossible to explain what it takes to keep a child alive who should be dead,” said Fabrello, whose son, Ysadore Maklakoff, experienced a rare brain condition called acute necrotizing encephalopathy at 9 months old.
Through North Carolina’s Medicaid program, Maklakoff qualifies for a large slate of medical care in the family’s home in Chapel Hill. Fabrello said she works with staffing agencies to arrange services. She also learned to give the care ordinarily performed by a doctor, skilled nurse, or highly trained therapist because she often can’t get help.

Ms. Fabello, your love for your son is absolutely remarkable and it says a lot about your character and empathy to the love you have for your son........bless you..............but I read about three doctors in Congress Barroso (WY), Kennedy(LA) and Harris(MD)........................want your son dead...................it's that simple..............they have no empathy but lust for power and greed and using the Hippocratic Oath as toilet paper..............literally..............for there smoke and mirrors bullshit...............
