Please help Stewart Ray's dream come true and for our family to have great memories to last for eternity before he passes.

Waikato

My Husband Stewart Ray was diagnosed in May 2013 with an inoperable Grade 3 Anaplastic Astrocytoma: which means a Brain Tumour on the Brain Stem. It has tentacles slowly wrapping around all his senses. He has been in and out of hospital over the last 2 years with multiple problems including having a VA shunt put in to release the pressure on the brain.

It has been a big struggle emotionally and financially for our family but we have never given up hope and if I could take Stu's pain away for even just a second I would in an instance. He has been such a fighter throughout his ordeal and won't give up til the very end.

Stu's dream is to have a holiday with all our family together. To share stories, memories, to laugh and cry together, to have time with and hold his Grandson before he gets to the stage he can’t communicate with all his loved ones; and to have the funeral he wants and has already planned himself.

Stu has always worked so hard to provide for his family, has been a loving, caring Father of our 5 Son’s, a doting Pops to our 14mth old Grandson (mostly through skype as two of our boys, daughter in law and Grandson live in Brisbane) and a wonderful, kind, loving Husband. We want to give him something he wants for a change; so please help our family to give Stu his dream before he passes and so we can have great memories that will last forever.
