Story

8 months ago I had never heard of Hummingbird House. Now I could not imagine my family’s life without it. It was 8 months ago, that my son Max, at the age of 5 months, was diagnosed with a life-limiting brain malformation called Lissencephaly. Navigating the period since diagnosis has been traumatic for us a as family.


I had no idea how we would survive the day to day struggle of being parents to a child with a life-limiting disability. One amazing source of support for us has been in the welcoming arms of Hummingbird House. Hummingbird House is Queensland’s only children’s hospice and one of only three children’s hospices in Australia. They provide specialised paediatric palliative care services to babies, children and young people with a life-limiting condition, helping them make every moment precious when life is short.

Hummingbird House and the amazing nurses, doctors and volunteers have supported us by providing respite stays where they provide care for Max and we can stay as a family. These respite stays have been invaluable in navigating our new world. 

Hummingbird House relies on the generosity and support of the Queensland Government and corporate and community supporters to ensure their service is here for every family that needs them, at no cost. 

By providing a donation, you will help not only my family, but thousands of Queensland families caring for their children with life-limiting conditions which is a world that is often hidden.
