Story
Hi there!
This October I am attempting to run farther than I have ever run in my life to raise funds & awareness for a cause that's close to my heart.
The 14th March 2018, was one of the scariest nights of my life and one that I would never wish that anyone would have to experience in their life time. Our 7 week old baby girl went into Cardiac Arrest and was rushed to hospital where she was placed on ECMO and was fighting for her life. After hours of the unknown and what had made our baby girl so sick, we finally had a suspected diagnosis - Kawasaki Disease.
Not enough is known about this rare but extremely fatal disease that effects children. It is the number one cause of acquired heart disease. So on Sunday 13th October I will be taking on the Melbourne Half Marathon. I will be running with my KD Shirt with the support of my wife & Kids in the hope that we can raise awareness to other families.
Please support my efforts by making a secure online donation and by posting a message of support.
Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to the Kawasaki Disease Foundation Australiia.
Thanks so much for your support!
