Being happy doesnt mean that everything is perfect.

It means that you have decided to look beyond the imperfections...

Lots of interest & support...

This week I blogged and facebooked about 'A Run for Ellie' which is an initiative by two friends, Jeff & Tracey, to run a fun run to raise money to assist with Ellies medical, specialist costs etc

Originally this was going to be run by the 4 us... This looks like it is going to grow. There has been quite a few people come forward who have said they will also run, and some are walking. There has also been alot of requests for the flyers, and offers from people asking how they can help.

We really do appreciate all the support!!

There are thoughts at this stage to do a BBQ breakfast afterwards on the yarra for all involved... This would be a great way for us to catch up with everyone after the race. So I will keep you all updated.

If you would like a copy of the run flyer emailed to you, please email me at

  3. Hi Debbi, thanks for your comments. We love to hear back from people who follow our blog. Support is a MUST to get through all the rough patches, we couldnt have done it without support from family, friends, and people who we have met online with kids with different conditions... It definatley all helps. I havent hear of 15q26.1. How does that effect your daughter? What is your daughters name and how old is she?

    Thanks again for your comments

    Chat soon, Mel
