Indi was born perfect & so loved.
At 6 weeks old she was admitted to hospital for the 3rd time.
Already tube fed due to aspirating & several other issues we knew something wasn’t right.
Indi had Genetic testing & after a long 2 month wait we were told Indi had 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome, 1 of the most common but never heard of Syndromes.
22q can affect every system in the body with over 200 issues.
Indi has been diagnosed with Laryngomalacia , Tracheomalacia , Hypotonia, Hyper mobility, Epilepsy, Autism , Global developmental delay, speech issues just to name a few.
We don’t know what the future holds but with fundraisers like Jeans for Genes it will make a huge difference to all our gorgeous kids.
Did you know that 1 in 20 Aussie kids are born with a genetic disease or birth defect? That’s one in every classroom!
This August, I’m taking on the Ks for Kids challenge - walking or running to raise funds for Children’s Medical Research Institute, supporting scientists who are working today to find cures for tomorrow.
Your donation will help keep labs running, research advancing, and hope alive for kids who need it most.
Every step I take is for them. Your donation will help me go the distance and fund vital research!
