George Ford

Hello to all Jasmin & Daniels family and friends,

As many of you may know by now Jasmin went into labour at 24 weeks and was flown to the Melbourne Mercy hospital, where little George made his grand entrance on the 27th of December at a very early 24 weeks and 3 days.

Jasmin has made an amazing recovery and little George is kicking goals and showing just how strong he is each and every day. But George also has some issues that will make his recovery time in Melbourne alot longer. With medical issues showing up with bleeds on the brain, kidney failure, stomach and bowel operations, virus's and infections. It just adds extra days that are needed to stay in Melbourne. 

As you can all understand this has been very unexpected and Jasmin and Daniel were not prepared for this as no parent ever would be.

We have started this go fund me page to try take some financial worries away from the new parents as no parent wants to part with their child especial when each day with little George is a blessing.

Jasmin and Daniel are in Melbourne and will be for months to come whilst little George is getting the medical care needed. Melbourne is a 6-hour drive away from their home in Mildura. As we all know we don't plan for these unexpected circumstances and our annual leave can only be stretched so far until it runs out. Also trying to claim for super, health insurance or Centrelink has been very difficult for them because it's not directly them who is in hospital it's their child which makes it more difficult to claim. Daniel's annual leave income will be up by the end of the month and that is one worry, we would like to help support them with.

Travelling back and forth to Melbourne and the hospital via ubers and taxis, planes is costly along with purchasing the necessities for little George, meals, any medical expenses. Along with the stress of ensuring they have their home to bring little George back to with the stress of keeping on top of paying Rent in Mildura and all the bills that come along with it.

Jasmin and Daniel are always the first to help anyone without hesitation and they are the last to ask for help, as they always say " Na All good she'll be right!", so we are asking for little George, as this gorgeous boy needs all of mum and dads attention at this time. We ask all of our friends and family to help in any way they can, any contribution or just by sharing this post is greatly appreciated and will help out Jasmin and Daniel for the long road ahead.

Thank you so much Casey & Miranda. Xo
