To help Alma Jacobs and family battle the terrible news of a brain tumour. She has been taken to Auckland hospital and awaits a 7 hour surgery in the near future. Alma and her family are always the first to help others in need, and she also gives her spare time volunteering in the community. Now they need some help to get through the months ahead. Any donation would be greatly appreciated and go towards medical costs and the families accommodation etc etc while they are away from home. Update Alma has had 12 plus hour surgery, this is going to be a long road to recovery for her and family, her skull could be off for up to two months to wait for swelling to subside before they can reattach. Alma is heavily sedated at the moment and doctors say she is doing well.
