Callun's Charity Auction

Callun is a 16-year-old who suffers from the life-threatening condition of Chiari Malformation. This disease causes Callun severe head and neck pain, pins and needles down his arms, and loss of muscle strength in his upper body. Without this surgery, Callun won't make it to his 20th birthday. There is also an increased risk that every day he suffers from this untreated condition, the CSF flow issue can cause a cyst in the spinal cord called Syringomyelia, leading to paralysis and loss of bladder control.

Michaela and her three sons are just a normal family, who live week to week and have managed to save $10,000 for this procedure, but they still require an additional $22,000 to get Callun the surgery he requires to have the normal life every child deserves.

Callun's family will need to stay with him in Sydney after the procedure for at least nine days because he will be in the High Dependency Ward. Michaela, Callun's mum, must also take time off work to be with her son. Additionally, there is also an increased risk there will need to be further surgeries, totalling a similar amount, to improve his quality of life.

We are hosting a ticketed high tea at the Royal Hotel Wyong, along with an online auction that has some fantastic prizes! The auction will run from 10 am on the 10th May, through to the 13th of May, and conclude at 5 pm. Any auction winners who are at the High Tea event will be able to take their prizes home immediately once payment is confirmed. Otherwise, all remaining items will be shipped to the winning bidders once payment is confirmed. Shipping costs will be charged separately to the winning bid, but in most cases can be combined if there are multiple winning items. Vouchers will be emailed to the winning bidders once payment is confirmed. 

Please let me know if you have any questions, and we look forward to your bids for this wonderful cause!
