Taking Caiden on a dream trip to Blueys world

Sunnyvale, Auckland

Caiden is a 6 year old boy who was sadly diagnosed with a terminal brain stem tumour in November 2022. Since then, Caidens mum and dad have been actively trying to fulfill as much of Caidens bucket list wish list as they possibly can. Most children who are diagnosed with this aggressive brain cancer sadly only live between 9 to 12 months. Caiden is still here fighting 19 months on. For that we feel blessed in the worst situation.

CAIDEN LOVES BLUEY! Everytime he watches the program he begs for his parents to take him to Blueys house. Of course this has not been possible as Bluey is a cartoon.... until now!!!! Blueys world is set to open in Brisbane in November 2024! Taking Caiden here would be a dream come true to him. He loved his trip to Australia recently, and was gutted that Blueys world wasn't open yet. We promised to take him back if we can raise enough funds to help us get there.

Seeing him happy throughout such devastating times is what helps keep us going as parents. Tomorrow is never promised for our beautiful boy. We hold onto hope for a miracle cure every day... and while we wait, we will continue to create everlasting magical memories together ❤️

Thanks to everyone for your ongoing support and love throughout this nightmare we are all living. We appreciate you all so much ❤️

Thank you ❤️ 6 December 2024

This Give a little page is due to close on the 9th of December. But before it does I'd just like to say the biggest thank you to everyone who has contributed over the last 2 years to help make all of Caidens dreams and wishes come true. We wouldn't have been able to grant him with all of his daily wishes if it wasn't for all of you beautiful people ❤️

I feel sad typing up the very last update here 😢 Because I've enjoyed sharing my beautiful boy with you all. All the highs and all the lows along the way, Caiden has proven that he is a brave strong boy who made this world a better place ❤️

So thank you all for showing us some light during the darkness, holding our hands and standing beside us, and showering our sweet boy and family with so much love and kindness ❤️ You will never be forgotten ❤️

I created a Facebook page for Caiden when he was diagnosed with DIPG in November 2022, and I will continue to do regular updates on there even though our prince has grown his angel wings. Caiden's memory will live on, and because I'm such a proud mum, I will continue sharing him with the world 🩵 He deserves to be remembered ❤️

I will leave you with a beautiful photo of Caiden smiling. Because it is a reminder that even when you are fighting the toughest battles in life, there is always a reason to smile ❤️🪽🌈🦋
