Reanna will be raising money for The Lily Foundation to help fund vital research into mitochondrial disease, which her daughter Milanna was diagnosed with at the age of seven months.
After Milanna’s diagnosis, Reanna felt so powerless and poorly informed about the disease that she set about researching it herself, and that’s when she found out about The Lily Foundation and first talked to Liz.
Milanna’s mitochondrial disease diagnosis is still new to Reanna, and although she’s still coming to terms with it, she wants to learn everything she can about the disease and its prognosis, and tell as many people as possible about it so that one day everyone will have heard of it.
Reanna’s little girl has faced so many challenges in her short life already, and time and time again she’s shown her parents how courageous she is. Now, with race day rapidly approaching, it’s Mummy’s turn to be brave!
