Avira Means Brave and Strong

When Payal was expecting her baby, she never imagined the journey that lay ahead — one marked by heartbreaking uncertainty, medical emergencies, and months in the NICU. But through every challenge, her baby girl Avira lived up to her name: brave and strong.

From a 1% chance of hope to 5 months of intensive care, Avira’s story is one of incredible resilience, made possible by the expert team at Westmead Hospital’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).

Their story is just one example of the life-saving work happening every day — work that relies on the generosity of people like you.
