Burial of sons ashes in Nz.

This time last year I set up a give a little page for Paul William's (https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/wanting-to-come-home-to-mum-to-die). He was alone in Germany and had been diagnosed with terminal stage 4 liver cancer.

The fundraising was initially to bring Paul home to Nz to be with his Mum and our family for the time he had.

He took a turn for the worse and he would have has to be medi evacuated at a huge cost. It was decided instead that his mum would go to him... which she did in early March 20...thanks to givealittle.

Then along came covid 19.

Paul actually had some treatments.. chemo etc in Leipzig in Germany. He did improve while his mum was with him looking after him. He remained positive that he would live and tried various alternate protocols himself which also seemed to help for a time.... although the tests showed that the cancer was growing and spreading to other parts of his body.

Paul's mum Beverly had to return to Nz after 3 months in June as her Shenglen Visa expired. Paul was doing quite well at that time.

But by mid September he started to have alot of pain and went to a palliative care hospice .He had to have his stoma removed but still he remained hopeful.

He was told however that he had about 3 months to live at most.

He was feeling so bad by this time that he finally gave up and realised he was going to die... so he asked for his mum to go back to Germany.

She was still physically and emotionally drained from her first 3 month stay and had only been home about 8 weeks. But of

course she went.... at the end of September by which time he was in a hospice.

Paul passed away on the 22nd October 2020 at 7.22pm

His x wife and 4 yr old son and a few friends had a service for him.and he was cremated in Leipig. Friends donated for the Undertaker and the cost to send his ashes back to New Zealand to his Mum.

Beverly lives very close to Purewa Cemetery and her wish is... that Paul's ashes be buried there and she would love a headstone with his picture on it. Any help to make her wish come true would be amazing

The cost if this is about $5,000 to $6,000

Thankyou for reading....

sincerely
