Introducing Tony:

In the North End of Hamilton born and raised.

Readin’ and drawing was where I spent most of my days.
Chillin’ out maxin’ relaxin’ all cool
Playin’ some soccer when I wasn’t in school.
From my earliest days lookin’ for ways to do good
I got into a lot of little projects no time to be spared
When people need help you know I’ll be there.

I started buyin’ and sellin’ houses ’bout 2011
Looked at my life and said ‘this must be heaven’
Looked at my city and knew I was finally there
To do the most good because I really do care.

Tony’s CMN Story:

“Living in Hamilton it is impossible not to be aware of McMaster Children’s Hospital, SickKids Hospital down the road in Toronto, and their affiliation with The Children’s Miracle Network. My life had been touched a number of times by family and friends whose children spent time in the care of the dedicated and selfless doctors, nurses, and support staff at both of those amazing places.

My first personal encounter came with the birth of my first son, Matteo. When Matteo’s mother’s water broke we immediately noticed that something wasn’t right. After 16 hours of labour and a stressful few moments after birth (that felt like hours) where Matteo was not breathing, our newborn son was taken from us directly to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit for observation.

My heart sank and my nerves were on fire. I feared, as most parents would, the absolute worst and while remaining hopeful, I less than patiently waited for horrible news to arrive.

Thankfully, after five restless days in the NICU we got the all clear and were finally allowed to take our little boy home for the first time.

We had a similar scare with our second son, Luca, when five months after an uneventful birth we spent another five days at MacKids, this time in isolation not knowing what was wrong with our little baby boy.

Throughout both experiences and more than a little of my nervous ranting, pacing, and otherwise panicked behaviour, the doctors, nurses, and staff at MacKids remained professional, compassionate, and caring. They got my family and I through days that seemed endless and without hope. I can never thank them enough for the kindness they extended to us and I can never do enough to help them in return.
