I'm living fearlessly this September. Will you support me?

I’m taking on the Live Fearless Challenge this September to raise awareness and funds for the almost 180,000 Australians living with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.

IBD is one of the most misunderstood chronic health conditions. Yet people living with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are ‘frequent flyers’ of the hospital system. It strips away income, disrupts education, work, relationships and travel, and can have a significant impact on both physical and mental health.

That’s why I’m getting active this September and aiming to complete 150km. Every kilometre is for the thousands of people living with IBD who face this in silence.

Consider supporting me as I take on the LFC! Your donation will help fund research, patient support, education and advocacy - because no one should have to manage this disease on their own.

Living with Colitis is yet to be THE biggest challenge I’ve faced!
It is not understood, not seen, and for me medications haven’t yet worked. And yes I’ve tried every diet imaginable! 

Fatigue, pain, good one second and not the next are daily occurrences amongst a list of many more symptoms.

Imagine waking every day with the worst gastro you’ve ever had!! Imagine living with that daily!Think of all the other symptoms that go along with that. Welcome to the world that people with these diseases live daily. 

Remaining positive and learning to live with it is so very important and being active and fit is a real struggle to keep up with.. so… I thought why not! 
Challenge excepted!! Living fearlessly is an understatement trying to do 5 klms/day while in a flare!!! 

Wish me luck and thanks if you choose to donate!! 
It’s an excellent cause.
