I cannot get over the response! Well I can because humans always want to help if they can, and I’m so hopeful we can cover a fair bit of the trip for the Loves! I met Liesje, Lachies mum a couple of decades ago and I cried at her the first time we met, so I went over to her course the next day to say sorry for crying and she asked me how I was, so of course I cried again hahaha.
But we became whānau then. We still laugh about that day. Liesje has been there for me solidly without a break and I her in varying ways of course because we love each other, but this is something I need to do for all of her family who have to cope with the worst shit ever. The nightmare, your child is sick and very sick.
I don’t mean to be dramatic but I will to make the point. Liesje has saved me a few times, I can’t save Lach (if I could that’s what I would be doing) but I can be there whole heartedly for Andy, Liesje, Harry and Lachie. They are my family and you are now all whānau too because you at all part of helping some of my most favourite people have a very cool trip.
There will be a huge amount of accessibility considerations with Lachies wheelchair so if anyone has any ideas of accessible fun stuff in Melbourne let us know!
Because WE HAVE BOOKED!! We are doing it! Thanks for you help trying to cover some of the cost of it all! I hope we can eventually cover all of it!
