Cuddle Cot for Cuties

Donation protected


On the 26th of December my sister Naomi and her family were broken apart when her 18 month old daughter Ezabella Wilson sadly passed away. Ezabella became sick with a respiratory infection on the 22nd of December and deteriorated quickly. During intubation so she could breath properly her heart stopped, the medical staff preformed CPR for 25 minutes before her heart started to beat on it own. However the damage to her brain was too extensive due to such a long time with out enough oxygen and she was declared brain dead 4 days later, The family wanted Ezabella to be able to help other children and donated her organs, Bella was only able to donate her heart but she gave the gift of life to another little toddler. In my nieces memory I would love to raise enough money to donate a Cuddle Cot to the Centenary Hospital for Women and Children in Canberra, this is the hospital where Ezabella was born. A Cuddle Cot is a new crib-cooling device used to preserve a body while parents say goodbye. Having time with the baby is crucial for grieving parent and I would like to give this gift for other parents who suffer the devastating loss of stillbirth or infant death,  I would love to raise this money before Ezabella's birthday in May so I can give this gift to the hospital as a birthday present for Bella on the 31st of May.
