But Lisa and Martin Beaton say they will continue to fight for law changes which ensure that all disabled children receive full financial support from the States.
As the JEP revealed last week, their daughter Amelia is kept alive by a tube that pumps food into her stomach because a rare muscular disease makes it nearly impossible for her to eat without choking or vomiting.
The Beaton family had been told by Health officials that when she turned three, they would have to pay for equipment, and when she reached five the family would have to pay for dietary supplements.
The Variety Club of Jersey Tent 52 has now come forward to offer their assistance to the family. Mrs Beaton said: ‘It has been really lovely to hear. We have that a lot of people who have been in touch and a lot of people phoning up to say they support us.’
