    it just seams never ending when things happen they happen just one thing after the another and we really need your support in order to help out this special family.

    The Caldwall-Walker Family along with all baby Oscar's ongoing health issues have just found out that they have a dying family member in Australia a beloved Uncle who really wants to meet the very special Oscar, Tobey and Gorja before his life ends.

    Obviously due to the very rough ride the family is currently travelling with Oscar and his journey to recovery from heart surgery and his ongoing health battles including down syndrome they are not in a position to be able to afford and travel to see their beloved uncle. Life has been very tough on them the last 7 months or so since they found out about Oscar's health issues and then the rough ride they are enduring though all of this with no income.

    They never complain and try to take it all in their stride but i know the financial strain this is taking on the family due to not being able to work while Oscar is travelling back and forwards to Auckland and for looking after their beautiful 2 year old at the same time. Sometimes i just do not know how they do it and try to keep smiling as this is life changing and and a very stressful journey but so very worth it when you have the love for a child you want to help and let that child have the best life possilble with all the difficulties Oscar will face in his journey.

    If you could find it in your heart to help this family who need help on there journey and to make a mans dying wish come true. please help out if you can. Oscar is the most beautiful baby ever with such a great resilience it makes your heat melt to see him fighting so very hard.

    Please help if you can and if you have any items you could donate to a trade me charity auction please contact me on julia.ryall@clear.net.nz.

    Thank you.

  • The Big Surgery

      25 February 2016

    Baby Oscar is due to take the next step in his health journey and a massive step it is Heart Surgery next week.

    This surgery has come around very quickly with little notice so the journey has begun where the family has to try and arrange there lives in order to go to Auckland next week.

    Oscar has been a star since leaving the nicu so it is quite sad that he has to go back to hospital so soon just when he was chilling at home and being doted on by his big brother (2) and his big sister (7) who love him to bits.

    Since going home Oscar has been gaining weight beautifully to make him strong for the next step in his long health journey.

    In order to help out Oscar and his family who have to up sticks and move to Auckland with less than a weeks notice, meaning they again have no income, a charity auction has been started on Trade Me a cookbook from Master Chef NZ winner Chelsea Winter who kindly donated one of her fantastic cookbooks to help out the family. The auction can be found at the following web address:

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=1039641804

    Please help out and bid on the auction if you can or donate to this page to help out one of the best families that we are so privileged to have met along our own journeys at nicu who really deserve some help to get through this time.

    We will post an update again soon to update you on Baby Oscar's progress.

    Cheers

    Julia and Rebecca
