Why we’re skipping
This August, I’m committing to 100 skips a day for the Children’s Medical Research Institute in memory of my beautiful daughter, Lucia.
Lucia lived for just 99 precious days after being born with Infantile Pompe disease, a rare genetic condition. Her life was short, but her legacy is not. She continues to remind us that every moment is precious and every child deserves the chance to live a full life.
Medical research gives families hope. It leads to answers, better treatments, and one day, cures for children born with rare genetic diseases.
If you’d like to honour Lucia’s legacy, I’d be incredibly grateful for your support. Every donation helps give another family hope. 🤍
Raised so far
With your help, we have raised...
$10,702
You’re helping fund research to find cures for kids with genetic diseases. Every dollar counts!
