Thank you!

Hi! Dear friends, family and well-wishers
We have decided to close this page as we have reached the goals we were aiming for.
We would like to express our absolute gratitude for all your donations - and the donated SLT sessions!
Thanks to your generosity we have been able to:
· make our house more "Angel-toddler friendly",
· pay for extra conductive therapy
· employ a carer support to assist with Coco’s learning
· Enrol Coco in 2 days a week of day-care to assist with her learning and social skills
· Provide her with nourishing organic food
· Pay for mineral and vitamin supplements
· Pay for extra carer hours
And Kim has been able to take time off work for the 4 hospital stays we have had over the last few months.
Coco update:
Coco is a happy and engaged 2 year old now. She loves being around family and friends and loves painting, watching her brother build his amazing Lego inventions and exploring her world.
Health wise, Coco started having febrile seizures a few months back triggered by pneumonia and an ear infection. These have since become more frequent, so we are trialling some anti seizure meds.
She has also recently had a videofluroscopy (a moving xray) that confirmed she is high risk of aspiration and pneumonia and has some scarring on her lungs, which we are keeping an eye on and in discussion about whether we need a feeding tube or not.
So as you can see we are on a very different path now than from a few months ago!
Scary sounding stuff aside, we are all doing great, Coco is thriving developmentally and socially and is such a delight to be around. Our house is always full of laughter and you've all contributed to a way less stressful few months, so thank you!! xxx Jo, Kim, Coco, Hemi & Stevie
