Colin's cancer journey

$3,778 of $8,500 goal
Given by 42 generous donors in around 6 months

This page was set up to help relieve some financial pressure for Colin through this difficult time. All proceeds go straight to Colin.

Waikato

My husband Colin was diagnosed with head Squamous cell carcinoma in November 2019, he was given three months to live and was offered a surgical operation to remove the cancer, we were advised to go home to think it over and connect with our whanau, then Covid happened' we were locked down and he didn't get to go back to the hospital until 2021.

When he did get an appointment to go back to the hospital they could do no more for him and have now put him on palliative care and hospice care. He recently has had a feeding tube because he is unable to move his jaw like he used too and eating is very painful for him.

Colin is sixty years YOUNG, a father of four beautiful children eldest son twenty three, twin daughters nineteen years and youngest son sixteen, he is a loving and devoted father and a wonderful husband

Fast forward three years he is still with us and amazes us everyday.

He has alot of ongoing costs alternative treatments, therapies, nutritional diets, organic juicing etc. so we need the funds to continue on with his treatments as well as to spend some quality time with his whanau and make the most of each day, the medical system can do no more for Colin but we haven't stopped believing in him so we keep on keeping on....thankyou to everyone 🙏❤

Use of funds

All proceeds raised for Colin will be a major help financially while he isn't able to work full time. The money will be used to pay for ongoing expenses, alternative treatments/therapies (Nano Soma & intravenous vitamin C), nutritional diets and quality time with his whanau.
