Fundraising to to get Fiadh to the specialised physical therapy and that gives her a fighting chance to reach her full potential.
Nelson / Tasman
Our twin girls were born at just 26 weeks. Fiadh suffered a severe brain injury due to undiagnosed Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome. After 5 months in NICU she was later diagnosed with Spastic Quadriplegia Cerebral Palsy (GMFCS V), profound hearing loss, reflux, and Chronic Lung Disease.
Now 2 years old, she’s full of joy, always smiling and laughing at her sisters. She can’t sit or crawl yet but is working hard on rolling, tummy time, and head control. She’s bottle-fed and manages a small amount of purée, often vomiting, and requires full-time care.
At 15 months, she completed 3 weeks of life-changing therapy at the Centre of Movement .She attends Wired Active in Nelson, using research-based therapy like NMES and TASES.
Both these therapies offer time-sensitive and crucial early intervention.
These are not publicly funded but her the best chance at progress.
We’re raising funds to continue her intensive therapy and give her every chance to develop strength, communication, and independence.
Every dollar helps. Thank you so much for your support. 💛
Thank you for being part of Fiadh’s journey

HUGE THANKYOU 29 August 2025
We are in the last two days of the give a little for darling Fiadh. To echo Anna, it has been amazing to see the support and love pour in with you generous donations. So wonderful for Fiadh to have the financial support to help her make some milestones and the bonus was the amazing love and care shared with the family.
It means a lot. I put up a goal of $20,000 and we have made it - that is so amazing.
The family are supporting Fiadh as she recovers from her little op and the next stage begins. Again many thanks for your generosity and kindness to them
