From daily… to weekly… to monthly updates — here we are again with another chapter in our main man’s unbelievable journey! 💪❤️
Yesterday we had the privilege of heading to the Kolling Institute at Royal North Shore for the ECMO symposium, where the amazing team from RPA invited Auston to share his experience of mobilising while on ECMO. Nerves and all, he stood tall in front of a room full of friendly faces from RPA, St Vincent’s, and beyond — sharing his story with courage and heart. 🌟 It was such a gift to reconnect with some of the incredible people who played such a huge role in his ECMO journey and ultimately his path to transplant.
Then today it was back to St Vincent’s, where the team continues to be blown away by his progress. 🙌 Recent tests searching for antibodies that could signal rejection? Clear. Zero. None! 💯 The wins just keep coming.
Since transplant, Auston has put on an incredible 17.5kg and is looking stronger and healthier than ever — proof of just how far he’s come. 💥
And next month marks a huge milestone: he’ll be flying to Sydney without his mumzy - tackling this adventure all on his own. From a boy who was never left unsupervised… to a man free to roam the earth. 🌍✨
What a glorious, hope-filled life we lead ❤️❤️❤️
