Out of surgery thank you all for you loving message and prayers. I will continue to fight and be the Warrior that’s within. Larger cancer tumours were laser treatment removed and biopsy of other Tumours,so will await biopsy report . I fight on and never give up .
Once again thank you for your support as I await dates for Radiation treatments in Christchurch
Just been on the phone to “ Angels on my Sholders “ that’s what I call my Oncology Nurse’s
25 September confirmation of the new part of this Journey locally then
Over the coming months after this procedure I will be booked in for extensive radiation & Nuclear Bone Scanning in Christchurch.
It’s time to focus and draw deep within my self and fight with strong determination like never before. To be transparent ” I will fight and never give up “
Cancer doesn’t define me, I am a Cancer Warrior “
My dear friends as I prepare for up coming treatments, I speak words of hope and understanding for those who are starting and going through cancer journeys, you are not alone. Experiencing 3 stage 4 Cancers I’ve experienced Radiation, Chemotherapy and Nuclear Bone Cancer Scan and hormonal prostrate injections and have walked hand in hand with others. The advice I give is not to focus on yesterday but live today in the moment. The special things that are important like , watching the sun come up , looking through new eyes the beautiful landscape etc and especially telling your friends and family you love them.!I’m determined to fulfil my dreams through providing people the means to express their deep emotions through art. As a international artist before I paint I close my eyes and when open them allow those feelings to flow onto the canvas.
Now is the time more than ever to make my dream to help others a reality help by give to make it happen. Together let’s hold hands with those on their journey, let them know they are not alone
Let’s do this together
So appreciate everyone that has given to my “ Give a Little Page” your support means so much to me as I live each day fighting and believing
I have a dream and to fulfil my bucket list including supporting others on their individual battle.
It’s now time to make it happen
Your Warrior Friend Robert
Defying all expectations Im here and have a greater determination than ever to support others like myself on their fight with Cancer .
Transition from Palliative to end of life speaks for its self. Disappointing my local community would prefer not to support I so appreciate those whom have and believe when I visit those whom need this support the tears in their eyes say it all .
Thank you for your support Robert
In a few weeks I will be celebrating 4 years on my journey with stage 4 cancer (May the 7th)
I cheat death once again. Join me as I take the hand of others on their journeys, bring peace and healing to them. Many of those whom I meet now rest from their fight, so in their memories help make those whom still battle a place of creativity and healing .
Let each day count , give knowing it’s going to those whom are warriors every day
Your Warrior Friend Robert

Hi everyone it’s through your support and love that I’m here about to have a special Christmas with family and loved one. I’m so thankful for your support and prayers as to see the new year approaching . I’m may next year I will be celebrating 4 years since I started this journey defying all medical expectations, ( even breaking the rules lol and living each and every day. This year has had its moments of sadness with some of my friends resting now from their journeys. This has caused a fire within my spirit to speak even more louder on their behalf. I have extended the closing date of this page as I have a very special request to ask to them that have already given and those whom are thinking of doing so . I have purchased and made Victory Bells for Timaru and Christchurch Hospitals and want to see them in both hospitals before my day comes so I ask you please please give to make my final dream come true , thank you together we can make difference
Love Robert

II would like to extend the closing date till end of November due to change of circumstances and the time it’s taken to get the page up and running .This would give me time to share and post my page to friends, family and those whom would like to contribute.I fight each day encouraging and sharing my journey with others starting their own journey.
It’s not what you can’t do but doing what you can and surrounding your self with other minded people and the love of family.
Though at times I find I don’t have the strength the faces of my children and grandchildren cause me to dig deep within and their love gives me the strength to be a Dad and Grandad
