Why I’m doing Jeans for Genes

JEANS FOR GENES DAY 2024
Friday the 2nd of August 

I am raising money for the Jeans for Genes day charity again this year, as a dedication to my beautiful little girl Ava. 

Every donation helps 🤍

22q deletion syndrome / Di George Syndrome is a genetic disorder. In children with this syndrome, a tiny piece of chromosome 22 is missing. 

For Ava this has meant feeding issues, severe reflux, aspirating, developmental delays, Speech delays, Cerebral Palsy, low muscle tone, heart problems, low immunity and seizures amongst other things, all these things require regular specialist appointments and therapies.

Our Ava is the strongest and bravest little girl I have ever known and I am just so proud she chose me to be her Mumma. In Ava’s 4 years of life she has already been through so much. And still everyday she lights up the room with her infectious smile and gorgeous little personality. She inspires everyone around her with her determination.

Most children with Di George Syndrome are missing approximately 40 genes. Researchers don’t yet know the exact function of many of these genes

Let’s help these researchers! And other children just like Ava.

There’s lots of work to do, but there is also lots of hope.
