William and Tom were born "late" for twins, but were unable to avoid admittance to the Special Care Nursery in Royal Darwin Hospital, being born in poor condition after a complicated birth. During their stay we watched other parents visiting and caring for their newborns who were in much worse condition than our boys. Many were preparing for months of daily hospital visits, sitting beside their baby attached to monitors and tubes making them difficult to even be held. Everyday we thank excellent medical care for allowing us to take both boys home safely. 

In May I will be taking part in Australia's most stunning 1/2 Marathon - The Great Ocean Road Marathon. I have decided to use this opportunity to raise as much money as possible for the Miracle Babies Foundation so that they can assist babies and parents who are not as fortunate as us.

Along with donations from friends and family, I am seeking 100 businesses to each donate $100, this would raise $10 000, enough to fund one Nurture Group, a playgroup for premature or ill newborns, for one year. If we can raise the amazing amount of $10 000, I will run the whole 23km carrying two swaddled infant dolls, complete with dummy and rattle. If your business is willing to be one of of the 100, please hit the donate button on the right hand side :-)

Every dollar (whether it be 1 or more) will help singleton and multiple babies born prematurely to make it home safely, so please consider making a donation.

William and Tom thank you for your support.  

I would like to acknowledge the following businesses
