A call for help with Mums Stage 4 inoperable Cancer and wet floor bathroom bill and cost of living While we still have her 💛

Matamata, Waikato

We are not ones to ask for help but sometimes you just need to. Judith found out in October 2024 she has stage 4 Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma with widespread bony Metastases. This changed her whole life.We moved her and dad into our home to help with personal cares as dad is also a veteran with his own health issues.

We have been admitted to Hospital nearly every week since december with treatments that included Thyroidectomy, radioiodine therapy that failed and Medical expenses and items that are needed plus multiple rounds of radiotherapy. She is on daily chemo.Travel is taking a toll. She is the kindess women, We would love to help her to live life to the fullest and get help with a wet floor bathroom bill that is wheelchair accessable due to now being fully wheelchair bound, she has lost her mobility.Please help us move some stress away and get some things on her bucket list ticked off. We dont know what each day will bring. We take it one day at a time. Please Help us reach our goal and give her some fun in life while we still have her

She came out of Hospital fighting sepsis on August 28th .

Judith is a trooper fighting all the way.

The L1 in spine has now broken down, and has a hairline fracture in right femour that cant get operated on due to cancer in the bone, as well as a cracked left rib from brittle bones.

Have had to bring in some home help for showers. Please help us, Every dollar counts no matter how big or small, It is appreciated.

She is fighting all the way

Taken a turn and back in waikato  19 December 2025

Seems to have contracted a lung infection and is currently on iv fluids in Waikato. We have a couple of scans coming up including a ct scan to see if the chemo has stopped working and the cancer spreading. Are keeping an eye on her due to finding a irregular heartbeat. Mum seems to be slowing down and maybe this is her body starting to let us know she is tired. The nurses say she is a unique case and bounces back but i just dont know. I am getting scared now and worried what expense we will be facing if have to change course. This disease effects so many people it breaks my heart. Please pray for us ❤️
