Fundraising for Nate

This is beautiful little Nate. Marni’s little boy (you may know her. She is a nurse here!). This full of life 18 month old will just melt your heart! But in his short life time he and his family have had to deal with a lot!  A week after Nate’s first birthday, when he should have been learning to run and talk, his  parents noticed something not quite right.  Nate was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. This is a life threatening auto immune disease that attacks the body’s natural insulin supply which ultimately leads to death.  Nate’s Father also has this crippling disease. Once diagnosed, there is no cure and it is a life time illness. Nate and his family have been in and out of hospital and have just bought a new insulin pump that makes life a little easier.  This equipment is very expensive and the McCloy Dental family have  decided to help out!  We want to raise funds to help Nate’s family purchase a sensor to go with the insulin pump. They are over $600 and continuing weekly payments of $100!!

A huge thanks to our “JAM FAIRY” Aileen who has generously made bottles and bottles of delicious home-made jam which is being sold at the practice reception.

We are also holding a MONSTER RAFFLE with over 50 fantastic prizes up for grabs. Prizes include vouchers, books, homewares, hand-crafted goods and much more! Get your tickets today!!!
