Anorectal Malformation

Thursday 19th Feb

Hi everyone,

Jettson was born on the 4th of July 2025 with a condition called Anorectal Malformation. This is a congenital condition where the anus and rectum do not develop properly, resulting in a blocked, misplaced, or absent anal opening. As a result, he was given a colostomy from birth and underwent 3 surgeries in his first month of life.

Subsequently, he had his reconstructive surgery at 4 months of age and then his stoma was reversed in February 2026. This experience has shaped our family forever but opened our eyes to the incredible work and compassion of all the individuals behind The Royal Children’s Hospital.

We honestly don’t know where we would be or what Jettson would have overcome if it wasn’t for the tremendous work of everyone who took care of him, from nurses, to surgeons and even the lovely volunteers. We couldn’t thank them enough for their hard work and dedication to helping young children and families overcome massive mountains.

Please consider donating to a special cause that is close to our families hearts, every cent counts ❤️
