Our Journey

Our beautiful little girl was born at 33 Weeks and 4 Days. 

I had a midwife appointment and felt that something just wasn’t right with my girl. I was monitored for about 1 hour before going to the Dalby Hospital for more monitoring. 

When I arrived they tried to put the monitor on to get her heartbeat but were struggling to find it. We did an ultrasound to check everything and got back to the room before struggling to find her heartbeat again. My Blood pressure also dropped, so the safe option for my girl was to have an emergency c-section. 

Being 7 weeks early, she was flown to Brisbane Royal Hospital where she spent a week in intensive care before moving into special care and being transferred back to Toowoomba hospital where we spent just under two weeks before being able to come home. 

This November I’m taking on the Premmie Marathon Challenge

I’ll be clocking up my kms in the Premmie Marathon Challenge to raise funds for life-saving neonatal equipment that will give critically ill and premature babies a better chance of survival.

I'd love your support - if you can, please make a generous tax-deductible donation here.

Thank you for your support.
Your donation will help keep me motivated as I complete my challenge through November, knowing that each km I complete is helping save the lives of sick and premature babies.
