13 year old Connor from Townsville has been diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis and spends most of his time in and out of Mater hospital. Last night that all changed when he was gifted VIP tickets from Big Give 2 for his whole family as he became a celebrity for the night in front of a sellout crowd at the Townsville showgrounds for the Big Give 2 Fireworks and Monster Truck Spectacular. Just when he thought the night was over he receives a brand new BMX gifted from Childs Vision to top of his amazing night. But it wont stop there for Connor.

Thank you donors for all your support.

Young 7 year old Connor had a surprise bike waiting for him after his dream had come true to ride in a monster truck in front of 10,000 people at the Rocky Stadium organised by Childs Vision. Dane from Childs Vision gifted Connor with his new bike and said the look on his face was priceless. Connor has Hemophilia the worst kind and spends most of his time in and out of hospital but this night was for him a star in all the kids eyes as he left the stadium.

About Hemophilia

Hemophilia is a rare bleeding disorder that prevents the blood from clotting properly, so a person who has it bleeds more than someone without hemophilia does. It's a genetic disorder, which means it's the result of a change in genes that was either inherited (passed on from parent to child) or occurred during development in the womb.


When most people get a cut, the body naturally protects itself. Sticky blood cells called platelets go to where the bleeding is and plug up the hole. This is the first step in the clotting process. When the platelets plug the hole, they release chemicals that attract more sticky platelets and also activate various proteins in the blood known as clotting factors. These proteins mix with the platelets to form fibers, and these fibers make the clot stronger and stop the bleeding.

Young 12 year old Bradley has a heart condition and has not had any good news for a long time until Childs Vision found him and took him on a ride that most kids dream about. He has just had a run in the Australian champion Monster Truck AUSSIE THUNDA. When he exited the truck he found a brand new BMX waiting for him and then a monster truck full gift pack with all the goodies in it.

Murri Christmas is a Campaign that Childs Vision supports that brings Christmas cheer to those who miss out in Aboriginal communities, over the Christmas Holidays.

We would like give a big thank you to everyone in Brisbane for a spectacular Murri Christmas event!
We shared a beautiful lunch with around 300 souls. The highlight of the day was when Murri Claus handed out presents to over 150 Aboriginal children! Seeing the massive smiles across the children's faces was proof for a very successful event.

Here is what Adrian Burragubba would like to say;

We would like to thank everyone who came, participated and donated their time and items that made the day a success.
This was only made possible by the generosity of Childs Vision and the community. Murri Christmas did not have any funding or grants for this event and was supported by Childs Vision and the local community.

HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A SAFE NEW YEAR

Holly has made amazing progress with the Childs Vision illness support program. Holly has gone from being in a wheel chair not being able to walk to miraculously walking within 2 days after spending serious time with Childs Vision specialists. She has been taking a special mix of super foods, participating in specialised rehabilitation techniques, and undergoing deep Breathwork regression sessions. Holly was previously in a wheel chair because of conversion disorder and the tablets that she was giving which had an adverse effect on her whole body that left her shaking uncontrollably when she would try and walk. She has now stabilised her walking.

A brand new Guitar gifted from Childs Vision and Stewarts Music to Riley.

Riley with his awesome New Legacy Tribute Series Guitar with his Teacher jimmy (Left) and Nick (Right), owner of Stewart's Music. Music is something he is quite passionate about and loves playing, One of my favorite things in the world is seeing him play. When Riley was suffering from various symptoms prior to diagnosis. He was finding it hard to concentrate, even for a short amount of time. Shortly after he stopped practicing all together. I can't thank you all enough, for re-igniting Riley's passion for music , and all that Childs Vision have done for our Family.

Shane
Once Again thank you all those kind people who have been donating to help change the lives of children like Riley.

Christmas is a time that can be a tough for children and their families to spend in hospital.

But with the help of Childs Vision volunteers and the hospital staff, the Children's Hospitals around Australia were able to bring plenty of Christmas cheer to the children who were patients at the end of 2011. Even Santa visited some of the hospitals to help put a smile on the childrens faces. On Christmas Day, Santa handed out presents delivered by Childs Vision volunteers to all the children in the hospital. Thank you to everyone who contributed to making Christmas at the Hospitals a special day for sick children.

A huge thank you to all those special people who donated to Childs Vision Christmas Appeal before Christmas.

Saturday, 14th January 2012

Riley is going well, we've been at the Royal Childrens Hospital now for nearly 4 weeks After being transferred from the Goldcoast Hospital.

We are due to start the next round of chemo on Monday. The only thing keeping us here is Riley's sodium levels. This is necessary to regulate the bodies blood volume, blood pressure, and fluid. This has come about due to an additional smaller germ cell tumor attached to his pituitary gland. The doctors are fine tuning his medication for this now. However this process will be thrown out of balance once the next round of chemo starts. I suspect that it will be easier to manage next time round and we will be able to go home sooner. Riley has begun to loose his hair, but he's not ready to shave it off just yet.

Thank you so much for your support.
