This. fundraiser is very important to me as I was born with two defects. I was born with Levocardia with Situs Inversus and sinus node dysfunction. I have been extremely lucky in my lifetime to have not had any major problems that I was aware of. I think as you get older you kind of forget that you have these medical problems if they aren't causing any difficulty. I decided to start skipping for Jeans for Genes last year 2024 which I completed 200 skips a day for the month of August. This led me on a pathway that nearly cost me my life!! In short of it I was fitted with a dual pacemaker at the end of September. My heart rate was below 20 bpm and I had no real obvious symptoms.

I really hope I get the same support as last year I would love to raise minimum of $1000 with your help.

It's for a really important reason: I want to help the 1 in 20 kids facing a birth defect or genetic disease, like cancer and cystic fibrosis. I'll be pushing myself this August because these kids need our help!

Every dollar raised from my challenge goes to Children’s Medical Research Institute and helps find treatments and cures that will save children’s lives. Your support will change the future for children living with genetic diseases!
