In 2013, I welcomed Hati into my world. A beautiful daughter that came with multiple diagnosis.
The gift of being Hati’s mother has transformed my life. Hati has showed me the importance of peace and purpose in life. My desire to be the best possible Mum for Hati has also shown me the importance of support to those on a similar extraordinary parent journey.
My love for Hati and my awareness of the effect of disabilities in life ignited something far greater than I could ever imagine. Fuelled with passion, I am a passionate advocate for creating change for all children and families living with challenges like ours. This is where Hatiology began.
The name is a partnership of Hati and the knowledge we gained through both good and harrowing times. It is a connection of our lived learned experiences and the experts we have aligned with.
