Standing Together

By Vaughn Murphy

My daughter is going into Westmead for further tests, this includes having her head shaved and screws inserted into her skull. For two weeks she will be forced to have seizures and monitored. She is a beautiful brave young lady but this is scary. Out of solidarity myself and a few friends are shaving our heads to show support for her. We don’t expect you to shave, but if you can consider helping with a small donation that will go to helping others with this disorder. It’s a scary thing to go through and a very scary thing to watch as a parent being unable to do anything to help.

Please lend a hand, have understanding and pledge a small amount to help those in a stressful and scary place.

I've decided to help the Epilepsy Foundation make a huge difference for the 1 in 25 people whose lives are affected by epilepsy.

Please support us during this time

The guitar itself is going on the road with Local Legend Chloe Swannell to obtain as many country music artist signatures as possible. She recently opened for Brooke McClymont and Adam Eckersley who signed the guitar for us. Whoever wins the guitar in the auction will receive pictures to help authenticate signatures. What a wonderful thing to have in our Auction.
