We’ve just come back from Eden’s Starlight Wish trip and it was honestly magic ✨ The Starlight team absolutely spoiled him and gave us a break we really needed. Coming back to Sydney afterwards was tough.. it’s a weird feeling to finish a holiday and not go home.

Straight after we got back, Eden started chemo again. He’s on a treatment that targets the bone marrow for the MDS. This is Cycle 1 and the hope is to get things stable, help his marrow recover, and then hit the rhabdo with more intense chemo. If all goes well, the next step would be a bone marrow transplant 🤞

He’s handled the first few days pretty well - tired and a bit grumpy, but doing amazing for everything he’s going through. He’s also needed a lot of blood products lately, especially platelets.

This week the hospital moved into the brand new Sydney Children’s Hospital. We’ll be in the new clinic next week - separate waiting areas, more bays, beautiful play spaces, family areas… and the oncology ward now has ALL solo rooms 😭😍🙏
Plus a brand new Starlight Express Room, which Eden will basically live in 😆💛

If the timing works in our favour, we’re hoping we can get back to Wagga for Christmas 🎄🤞 But like always, there are so many unknowns. Really hoping we get to be home this year.

Thank you to everyone checking in on Eden and on us. It means the world 💛

We are absolutely blown away! 65 swab kits have already been sent out!! 🙌🏼

And even more incredible… a huge organisation in Canada, Swab the World, has reached out after seeing Eden’s appeal! 🇨🇦 They want to help promote it internationally to reach even more potential donors 😭💛

The response so far has been beyond amazing, so many of you have shared, swabbed, and spread the word. We can’t thank you enough.

✨ We’ll be hosting a coffee catch-up in early December, with some helpful information from our wonderful local Stem Cell Australia ambassador, Jenny Nixon. Come along, learn more, and connect with others supporting Eden’s journey. Date TBC.

Let’s keep the momentum going! keep sharing, keep talking, keep swabbing! Let’s find a match for our darling Eden. 💛🩸✨

We had a little window at home before things get busy again with unknowns, appointments and decisions ahead. Our family pulled together a very last minute but truly spectacular early 4th birthday celebration for Eden. 💛

It was everything he loves- his favourite people, his favourite things, and the biggest smiles all around.

A few big shout outs:

🎞 https://www.facebook.com/share/14MT9pBZPnJ/?mibextid=wwXIfr for capturing moments we’ll treasure forever. We’ve decided to keep the footage just for us, but take our word for it, it’s absolutely beautiful and Corinne is so talented.

🍪 Pretty Little Biscuit for the most delicious and beautiful cookies as always- Eden’s favourite.

🐴 Pip’s Pony Parties for generously giving Eden his first ever pony ride. He, his cousins and his friends absolutely loved it.

🎂 Nutty Nans yummy things for bringing his cake forward at the last minute and making it so special.

🕷️ Spiderman for his patience, kindness and fun energy that had Eden in awe (and most of all.. that epic spidey jump)

Eden had the best time and is the happiest (almost) 4 year old ever. We’ll be holding on to this day tightly. 🌻💛

We’ve had some really hard news recently, and it’s taken time to find the words to share it.

After almost a year of fighting rhabdomyosarcoma so bravely, we’ve learned that Eden’s cancer has returned and he’s also developed a second, exceptionally rare cancer called Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), caused by the very treatment that saved him the first time. It’s so rare to have both that the team hasn’t been able to find another case like his, so this is truly uncharted territory.

We’re incredibly reassured that his oncologists are doing everything they can and are putting together a plan. The goal is to treat the rhabdo first with surgery and radiation to get him back into remission, before moving forward with a bone marrow transplant to tackle the MDS.

Despite everything, Eden has actually been feeling really well, so we’ve been soaking up every bit of that… making the most of family time, laughter, sunshine, and fun whenever we can
✨☀️🌻💛

If you ever needed a gentle reminder to donate blood, plasma, or register as a bone marrow donor… this is it.

Those simple acts truly save lives like Eden’s.
