Welcome!

This site has been set up for the purpose of creating a support network and information exchange for families in Australia who have been affected by Kawasaki Disease.

Feel free to contact us for a chat, more information or just to let us know how you have been affected by K.D. This will enable us to gather more information about the incidence rate here in Australia and the long-term effects it has on your family emotionally as well as medically.

For more information on the disease itself check out our information and links pages.
