Please donate urgently. No family should face the heartbreak of losing a child alone.
Without Very Special Kids, families with children who have a life-limiting condition may have nowhere else to turn.
Children like Marley who was born five months premature. He weighed less than a bag of sugar. Steve and Kellie shared:
“The doctors didn’t think he was going to hold on for much longer.”
After more than six months in hospital — Marley was finally well enough to go home for the first time. But none of Marley’s conditions can be resolved. Steve and Kellie just have to keep managing them.
It just doesn't stop.
When Steve and Kellie were referred to Very Special Kids it was the turning point for a family who had already been through so much. And living in regional Victoria made things even harder.
“Very Special Kids have been our best support because they are the only ones who can give us respite.”
Having a child with a life-limiting illness is already unbelievably tough. But for regional families like Marley's, life can be even tougher. Please make a tax-deductible gift before June 30.
