When Karl Waddell and Alex Hamilton lost their firstborn son, River, to SIDS they began a charity to help others avoid the terrible grief they suffered.
Eight years later, Angie Hilton visits the couple and their “two joyful cherubs” Shiloh and Bodhi in the latest edition of Geelong Coast Kids magazine.
“This story is a particularly hard one to cover, but on the flipside it’s also an amazing example of resilience,” Angie writes.
The couple’s mission to help others avoid the living hell they faced is just one of the great reads in GCK.
Parenting advice, child health news, kids’ book reviews and a great guide to school holiday activities also feature across the magazine’s glossy pages.
Geelong Coast Kids is free to pick up now at hundreds of family-orientated locations and venues across Geelong, the Surf Coast and Bellarine Peninsula.
A free E-magazine and more great reading is available at geelongcoastkids.com.au, with readers invited to follow Geelong Coast Kids on Facebook.
