Wear Jeans for Kids like Georgia

Wear Jeans or Bake it Blue for Kids like Georgia!

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 year, I’m taking part in Jeans for Genes to help fund the incredible scientists at Children’s Medical Research Institute, who are working today to change lives tomorrow.

Your donation will help keep labs running, research advancing, and hope alive for kids who need it most.

My Daughter, Georgia, was born unable to breathe without mechanical intervention and her neuromuscular system was impacted greatly, inhibiting her from moving like a typical child.Ā 

Georgia was in the NICU at the Royal Childrens Hospital for 3 months while the medical team tried to find answers to help her get home! She is now dependent on a tracheostomy tube to breathe and a nasogastric tube to eat. She also has numerous therapies each week to assist her mobility.Ā 

Georgia is now a 1-year-old and thriving, however we still do not have answers as to why she is the way she is.

Her genes are currently being analyzed at the Children's Medical Research Institute, and we hope that with your support, we can get the answers we need to find a cure!

Together, we can make a difference.
