Adele needs your help to get treatment

  • Not the news we want to share but here is an update.

    Hey everyone, unfortunately the tumour has grown so much that I am no longer a candidate for Cryoablation. To say I am gutted is an understatement as I have been doing everything possible to make it happen so that I get this treatment. But the universe has other plans.

    I am being booked in for urgent surgery next week as it is pressing on my bowels and could cause an obstruction if left for any longer. I am scared of what this means for the future and how this will affect our lives but will take it one day at a time.

    I wanted to check with you all because originally this fundraiser was to help me get Cryoablation treatment and cover the travel costs associated with this as well as the treatment. I had spent some of this on a private consultation, arranging our passports in anticipation and also on a homeopathic doctor and remedies to support and prepare my body for this treatment but most of it is largely untouched as we never got to book it all in.

    We are hoping to use this money towards costs associated with my travel to Auckland & anything needed for my recovery post surgery. We wanted to check that this would still be ok with you all? There is still a chance that the tumor will regrow after surgery and I will need cryoablation then too. If anyone has any problems with this change of plans and would prefer we return your donation please get in touch with the Givealittle team by the 22nd December to arrange a refund.

    Much Love,

    Adele, Jason & Aurora xx

      You can use it for champagne and chocolate if it gives you peace and comfort. 🙏🏼 No problems at all here; go on then. Praying hard!! (I'm a friend of Jason's from Las Vegas, btw)

    I cannot tell you how many times I have ugly cried over the past few days, but today definitely won the award for the most ugly crys ever! Because today we reached our first goal. Thanks to all of you wonderful humans we can now book in this first treatment without worry for how we will afford the hospital bills, trip etc. We are so incredibly grateful!

    On the 9th November we have a consultation with the surgeon so from there we will have a better idea on cost and how many treatments I might need.

    From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. We love you and we are so grateful.

    Adele, Jase & Aurora xx

    PS. I still can't even comprehend or believe any of this!

  • 1st treatment goal

      12 October 2023

    We estimate it will be around $25k we need to raise for my 1st treatment, scans and travel cost. This goal includes the fees taken from givealittle and a bit extra as a buffer. After my consult in November we will have a more accurate quote and goal to reach for.
