    Hello, my friends…. this is Ben with a wee update. After 2 stays in ICU, 4 surgeries, and a 3 week stay in Auckland hospital, I was transferred to North Shore Hospital late last week. I still have a long way to go on this journey that has been thrust upon me, but I’m determined and strong willed and with the support of many around me, will get through this. My family and I would personally like to thank the many generous donors not only for their financial donations but also their kind words, love and support. It truly has meant the world to us.
