URGENT!! Friendly Kangaroo Needed!

Not your average request I know but I'm making it on behalf of the lovely Jessica van Beek who is in Melbourne from the Netherlands to film a TV show about animal heros.

She had lined up a Kangaroo for the show but extremely tragically has just been notified that the animal actor was bitten by a snake and died.

So she is quite desperate to find a tame Kangaroo that can be guided to hop in front of a couple of actors to a certain spot, and put 2 frontclaws on a lying down man as part of a reenactment of true story wherein a Kangaroo saved a man from choking.

So I have been searching high and low for indigenous animal handlers in the hope of finding a friendly Roo available for a TV shoot in late February?

Aside from emailing a bunch of businesses I thought I'd throw a post out to all my networks in case someone has a hand reared Roo who wants their big screen break!

Please can you SHARE or ping anyone you know that might be able to help?

Many thanks!

Hi Everyone, it's Katherine here, I am checking in with all my social networks looking for anyone that may have a genuine interest in Gypsy Caravans and/or the Tiny House Movement that might be willing to give me a hand.

I am currently enrolled in the federal government's New Enterprise Incentive Scheme and preparing a business plan to embark on new small venture that I have dreamed of doing since I was a child and first encountered and fell in love with them, I want to finally put my training in design, woodcraft, fine art and furniture to use and start building custom Gypsy Caravans.

I have the chassis, plans and base materials ready to begin building my first display caravan; but if this is to become a viable business I need to do some preliminary market research; so if you have a bit of a Gypsy spirit and would like to help a sister out I have created an Initial Research Survey and would dearly love your input!

Peaceful rest dear Connie, here's to your life so well lived and the legacy you've left. 💙

Connie Johnson, the founder of the Love Your Sister cancer charity, dies in hospital. Connie's death comes just hours after being awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia by the Governor-General.

Of all of the days to have to be here 😞Ruby has a specialist appointment with the Orthopaedic team to check the progress of her treatment for osteomyelitis in her leg.

She really wanted to take a picture of Big Lips, Pixie's favourite fish but unfortunately the RCH aquarium is still closed for cleaning, so we had to settle for the giant butterfly that she also loved.

Needs tissues.
I know that this will bring out tears but I wanted to share because it reminded me so much of Pixie's passing.

On finally completing her pink room Pixie came home from hospital and only slept one night in it and then she let go.

There is something tragically magical and strangely comforting in these stories, these young children holding on until the peace, love and security was just right.

Much love. Be kind and 'there for' one another.

Wishing you all a safe, happy and connected Christmas.

Today marks the two year anniversary of Pixie's passing.

Please take a moment to reflect on the preciousness of life and send out a loving healing wish to her family.

May peace and joy increase in each of their days, and yours.

With love,
Katherine

A message from Pixie's mum Kylyn:

13/01/2007. Happy 8th birthday to our darling daughter Pixie, forever 6 years old, just like the poem at her funeral.
We miss her so much, I just cannot find the words to describe.
So I'll explain, this year she would be starting grade 3, starting netball with Max while he was at footy, just generally being an 8 year old girl.
Today we went to the cemetery with eight balloons (thank you Sarah Bullock, simply beautiful, even in the pouring rain, which still hasn't stopped, we love you) with John, Max, Tora, Will and Sarah we tied the balloons all around her, shae would have loved it!
Lots of love & special hugs & kisses, your mummy & Daddy forever X###

Our favourite extreme humanitarian is at it again!

Many of you will remember Pixie's personal hero Alex Petrou who pushed her purple wheelie bin from the Royal Children's Hospital to the Geelong Hospital to help raise the funds to build her pink bedroom.

This time he is turning his considerable muscle to push a car 42km in 15 hours to raise funds for disadvantaged youth!
This is a wonderful grass roots campaign and I am asking all of our friends to support him even if it is just a couple of dollars to reach his target.

Alex did so much for our little Pixie, he is a one of kind person that puts himself on the line for others.
Lets give him a push forward in his drive. Just think if each of you dear friends just donated $1 he'd hit his target!

But I'm challenging you to donate $5 (or more!) and then blow a special kiss in honour of our angel Pixie.

Here is the link to the fundraiser page.

Thank you for your support of this great man and wonderful cause Please share with all your friends, family and associates or any businesses you know with a philanthropic heart.

A lovely and touching post by Maria Solo:

I was given an information & resources package yesterday at a seminar I opened to find Pixie, I couldn't control my emotions so had to walk away from the 2 ladies that chat to me and gave me this. I came up to checked on Abbey gave her a massive hug n kiss she asked what I had in my hand. I gave her the package she opened and found the booklet with Pixies picture. She said, Lovely shot if Pixie she's gone but she'll always be remembered I couldn't said it any better than she did u Kylyn n family
