These two are jumping out a plane next weekend, for NKH Research. As Andrew said:
“Alright! Having just hit the daunting age of 40, I thought, “What better way to welcome this milestone than to hurl myself out of a plane?!” As a proud Kiwi who loves an adventure, I’m embarrassed to say that I have never before thrown caution (and myself) to the wind from such dizzying heights!
And for a fantastic cause, too. Non-ketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) is a tongue-twister that’s much harder to live with than pronounce. Thankfully, the Mikaere Foundation has been battling this since 2017, working to demystify NKH, supporting families grappling with its challenges and finding ways to give those with NKH a brighter future.
So, if you ever wanted to see a middle-aged Kiwi plummet from the sky, now’s your chance! Donate generously and give wings (metaphorically, of course) to an incredible cause! #SkydivingForNKH#KiwisCanFly
Lol. Are these two not the absolute best?
