I'm shaving my head in support of Saoirse Gaffney

4 months ago 5 year old Saoirse was diagnosed with stage 5 cancer. Doctors discovered she has tumours in both of her kidneys and both lungs, 26 tumours in all. Upon diagnosis her family had to drop everything and immediately get her down to Christchurch for treatment. She has just had kidney sparing surgery in Memphis, USA. Initial prognosis post-surgery was positive but complications have since arisen and a few more speedbumps have appeared on this long road to recovery.

We all know the daily struggles all families have, but being away from home for long stretches, as well as being off work to be by Saoirse's side has placed a huge financial burden on the family.

LFC Wellington have raised over $9,500 so far for the Gaffney's. I want to help them take it over $10k!

Please note: For anyone who has concerns about this fundraiser being insensitive to Saoirse and her family, this idea has been run past and approved by the Gaffney's
