Miss Jaida

Jaida is a bright, bubbly, amazingly strong and gorgeous 10 year old young girl,

Jaida has endured and suffered from an undiagnosed bowel condition from birth, she has had an assortment of tests, 65 surgical procedures and spent many weeks as inpatient in hospital her longest stay was for 29 weeks she has spent many birthdays, easters, holloween and Xmas days on the ward, her condition has also caused alot of countless nights that both Jaida and her mum are away from home and this also has affected Jaida's 3 brothers Ayden, Bradley & Cambell Jaida's condition has taken its toll on her family and many important events and memories were missed, Jaida has amazed us all through it all she's been a true fighter with and attitude to boot she takes it all in her stride,

But she has come to the stage that it's all getting to much, her daily routine consists of bowel washouts and 3 different kinds of meds 3x day through a nasal gastric tube this process can take up to 6 hours or more it's also very painful, this not only means so much time of school and being able to hang with friends like a normal girl but her meds come at a cost of $827.50 per week, her struggle is that is not having the effect it should and she is still in pain and going through some adverse side effects, including rectal prolapses and vomiting bowel contents,

Jaida has been given the opportunity to have a 3-4 hour consultation with a top gastroenterology specialist at the royal children's hospital in Brisbane Australia and the very positive outcome of not only getting a diagnosis but also a cure, that would be a dream come true, but it comes at a cost that her mum can not afford, the figures are $300-$400 for the consultation plus airfares, Also up until recently she hasn't been allowed to swim in a public pool due to risk of infection but just 2 weeks ago she had her first swim, Jaida has one special wish to go to wet 'n'wild,

We have estimated $2000 would get Jaida and her mum Amanda there but around $3000 would make it less stressful,

So let's rally together and make this possible every little bit helps Jaida towards her dream to a normal and ultimately pain free future <3
