Brian has stage 4 cancer and needs to see his kids
Brian is dying and needs to see his kids again, who live in the UK, before he dies.
Thames, Waikato
My friend Brian has stage 4 cancer and would love to see his kids one last time before he dies. Sadly neither he or his kids have the funds to make this happen. Brian has 4 kids - Zacc & Clare who grew up with him in NZ, and Terri Ann and Josh who grew up with their mums in the UK. There's been many years apart for this family due to financial restraints. Brian has tumours in his back, lungs, brain and recently the cancer has spread to his jaw. It feels urgent to help bring Josh and Terry Ann to be with Brian and their brother and sister, at this precious time.
Brian has worked for many years as a councillor. He is a generous and deeply kind person, always fighting for the underdog and for social justice. Many will know him for his love of music and talents playing the guitar. Please help unite Brian's family.
