00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 2: a twelve hour fundraising appeal for the children's Hospital at Westmead,

5
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 2: helping to support the purchase of equipment for life saving

Speaker 2: Ferguson is what Jonesy calls you, Mark behind your back

9
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 2: channel seven A come back.

10
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: To his face, straight to her face every time. It's

11
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 1: very nice of him too, And.

12
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 2: Mark, you brought in some special guests today.

13
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, we have a couple of VIPs. We've got Hugo

14
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: and Hugo's mum. Hugo has had a real battle at

15
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 1: Westmead over the last year, but he's looking very fit,

16
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: very healthy and very happy to be here. And it's

17
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 1: all about raising money for Westmead Westmead Children's Hospital. It's

18
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 1: the big Radiothon we're right in the middle of it.

19
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: Started at six am this morning, goes till six pm

20
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: this evening. Now, every dollar you give over the next

21
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: twelve hours or so will be doubled. So if you

22
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: can spare twenty, it makes for forty bucks at the hospital.

23
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: If you can spare a hundred, it makes for two

24
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,040
Speaker 1: hundred dollars. So very very important. Twelve hours excellent.

25
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 2: Now I know Hugo is going to be your intern

26
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 2: for the day. Gosha, Hello, Hugo's mum. Tell us about Hugo.

27
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 2: In the last year he's been through.

28
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 3: It's been quite a well wind. It's almost coming up

29
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 3: to the one year anniversary. And Hugo was at the

30
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 3: school walkathon, done about thirty laps that day, running his

31
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 3: little heart out, and unfortunately, he suddenly just dropped at

32
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 3: a seizure on the ground in front of his whole class.

33
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 3: And we didn't find out until after the ambulance rushed

34
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 3: to the hospital cet scans, MRIs and so on, that

35
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 3: Hugo had actually suffered a stroke. It was nothing that

36
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 3: I could have ever imagined was even on the cards.

37
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 3: We didn't know. Neither of our friend's family really knew

38
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 3: that babies and kids could have strokes.

39
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 2: Too, didn't know.

40
00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was perfectly healthy, zero warning science. We've had

41
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 3: minimal exposures to hospital's hospital life, and suddenly this has

42
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 3: been our last twelve months.

43
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: Wow?

44
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 2: And what kind of treatment has Hugo had over the

45
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,679
Speaker 2: last twelve months? What's kept you in hospital?

46
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 3: So really the biggest thing has been a lot of

47
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:23,839
Speaker 3: intensive rehab, so physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy. Unfortunately, when

48
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 3: he woke up out of ICU, he had lost the

49
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 3: ability to speak and he had lost all movement on

50
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 3: the right side of his body, so he literally had

51
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 3: to learn to walk and talk all over again. He

52
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 3: had to learn to sit and eat. Even at the beginning.

53
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 3: It was like having a newborn all over again.

54
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 2: Do you remember any of that, Hugo? No, and you

55
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 2: feel pretty good. You feel pretty good these days.

56
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 4: Yes, it was great, mate. You look fantastic. You almost

57
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 4: look as good as Mark Ferguson. And you know, pretty boy,

58
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 4: he looks pretty good.

59
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: So he certainly recavity speech. We've been having a good

60
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,679
Speaker 1: chat this morning, and you know what they've gone through

61
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: over the last twelve months or so. So many families

62
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: sadly require that sort of service, but they al said

63
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 1: the same thing. You know, it's the staff in that

64
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 1: hospital that really make the difference. It's such a warm,

65
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: such a caring, such a family environment. And that's what

66
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: we're here for today, isn't it try and raise a

67
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: few more dollars so they can help other little fellows

68
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: like Hugo recover as well as Hugo has over the

69
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: last twelve months, and.

70
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 4: Hugo has been following around learning what you do for

71
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 4: a job. So, Hugo, how long did that take? Was

72
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 4: that like about five minutes to you? Five minutes of

73
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 4: time and you had it pretty much wrapped up. It's

74
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 4: a lot you the kid off, haven't you?

75
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: A few years ago, Jonesy went into the studio and

76
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: tried to do a little bit.

77
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 4: He was quaking in his boots. He's going, what Jones

78
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 4: is here doing my news?

79
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 2: Well, why can I remind you? Brendan? You're speaking out.

80
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 4: Loud what happened there? So it's lucky I've got this.

81
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 2: These two have also taken each other on in a

82
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 2: roll of skating competition. Guess who won that one? Who

83
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,119
Speaker 2: do you think won that one?

84
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 4: You go, the kid speaks volume cheated.

85
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: I thought we were mates, were mates yet to win one?

86
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 1: About contests? Not that it's competitive.

87
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 4: I like to help Mark out.

88
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 2: Well, if let's help everybody out, tell us again, what

89
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 2: we can do today.

90
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: Look, you can just get onto the website ww dot

91
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,720

94
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,680

96
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: I said, if you can spare one hundred dollars, two

97
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: hundred dollars will go to the children's Hospital at Westmead.

98
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 1: It's paying for the latest equipment, the best facilities, the

99
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: best research, all those things that are so vital to

100
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: help youngsters like Hugo.

101
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 4: What would have cost you to get the skates back on? O?

102
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 1: Here we're talking. If I'm versing you, I'd probably do
