Help us give other preemies like Theo a better chance of survival

In February 2019 Curt and I gave birth to our preeemies Theo and Alex at 24 weeks and 3 days gestation. We weren't sure what to expect only that we would be in hospital for a long while. At 6 weeks our little boy Alex passed away leaving a massive hole in our hearts. Theo fortunately has made it home and is doing well. We were in hospital for close to 120 days with Theo and stayed in 3 different hospitals, 2 of which were in Sydney and over 400km from home.

We can't help but think that if there was more funding for the hospital we birthed in the outcome would be different for our boy Alex. We want to raise money and awareness of this group to help future NICU parents and the hospitals be better equipped to handle micro preemies like our boys
