I'm walking 71km in memory of my baby, Rocco.
This November, I’ll be taking part in the Preemie Challenge for a cause that is incredibly close to my heart. 👣💜 I have had four premature babies, born before 29 weeks and one 34 weeks. Sadly, in August 2023, we lost our beautiful baby boy, Rocco. There is not a day that goes by that he isn’t loved, missed, and remembered. ❤️ This challenge is my way of honouring Rocco’s precious life and carrying his memory forward by helping other babies who arrive far too soon. I will forever be grateful for the incredible NICU nurses, doctors, and medical teams who care for our tiny fighters, as well as the life-saving equipment and technology that give these precious babies a chance to grow, survive, and go home with their families. Every contribution, no matter how big or small, can help make a difference for babies born too soon and the families who love them. Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever my reason. This one is for you, Rocco. 🕊️💜 #PreemieChallenge #ForRocco #BornTooSoon #NICUAwareness #TinyButMighty #InMemoryOfRocco

My Target
71KM
Every day in Australia, 71 babies are born prematurely. I have had 4 babies all born before 29 weeks. This cause is so incredibly close to my heart.
This November, I'm taking on the Premmie Marathon Challenge to give these babies the best chance at life.
The funds I raise will help Running for Premature Babies provide life-saving neonatal equipment for hospitals around Australia, giving premature and critically ill babies the chance to grow stronger and go home with their families.
If you're able to support me, I'd be incredibly grateful. Every donation helps fund the equipment and research that gives premature babies a better chance of survival and quality of life.
Thank you for supporting my challenge and helping Australia's tiniest babies. 💜
