I'm walking for My adolescent son Leonardo

Walking for my teen son, Leonardo.

Decided to do this marathon to surprise my son to show him what i did for him that day! 

I’m walking for my son who was diagnosed with T1 diabetes just before starting highschool

My wish is for my son, Leonardo, to be able to have moments of joy and be creating family memories with his mum and dad.

As a family we have had many challenges and overwhelming times since his diagnosis it has been a rollercoaster like no other! Need my strength to endure everyday so one thing at time what’s most important to do one step at a time and when walking it’s just the same one step a time so this is something i am going to enjoy this Sunday to surprise my son! 

I'm joining the world's largest type 1 diabetes (T1D) fundraising event for families at Rhodes Foreshore Park this March!

Why? To help raise $1.1 million for life-changing T1D research, and ultimately turn type 1 into type NONE.

T1D can strike anyone at any time, and 8 Australians are diagnosed every day. Diagnosis means a 24/7 fight with no break, and facing an extra 180 decisions a day to remain safe and healthy. 

Please support my walk today.
