As a “frequent flyer” to the Royal Children’s Hospital, Albie Moore is privy to perks of the life-saving variety.
His parents now know every twist and turn in the road from their home in Geelong to Parkville.
They’ve made that trip more than 100 times for their son’s appointments, procedures and major surgeries.
While it’s a journey they would make a million times more to see their second-born baby achieve his potential, it’s a lifestyle that requires plenty of planning and patience amid the unpredictability.
But many hands, provided through a new Australian-first model of care, are making the load a little lighter for the Moore family.
Albie, 23 months old, was born with VACTERL association, a medical condition where each letter of the name stands for the system in the body affected, from the vertebrae to the limbs.
Already, he has had surgeries to build a new lower bowel and repair his heart, but his health problems are ongoing, varied and complex.
In addition to any emergency issues, the toddler requires the expertise of 12 specialist teams.
