Faith’s Leukemia Journey – Supporting Faith and her Whānau every step of the way
Bay of Plenty
Faith’s Leukemia Journey
On March 5, 2025, Faith was diagnosed with B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia. She and her mum are currently staying at Starship Hospital, where Faith will undergo intense chemotherapy for the first month. During this critical period, her immune system will be highly vulnerable, and her progress will be closely monitored to assess how well the treatment is working. We remain hopeful for positive outcomes as she begins this challenging journey.
After the first month, we are optimistic that Faith and her mum will be able to return home. However, Faith will still require multiple weekly treatments in Tauranga, and monthly trips to Starship for continued treatment. Her journey will span approximately 2.5 years, with regular visits to ensure she receives the best possible care.
At just 2 years old, Faith is a bright, curious soul with a spirit far beyond her years. She loves the outdoors and water. Her vibrant personality lights up any room she enters, and she has a natural gift for connecting with others. Cancer may be part of Faith’s story right now, but we refuse to let it define her childhood. We want to fill her days with things that remind her that she’s still just a kid, full of wonder and joy.
We want to ensure that Faith’s whānau can be right there beside her, without financial stress
