Help Stephen Hold Onto Hope. Any support or share would mean everything 💛

Stephen lives in a small, remote village in India, and right now he is facing more than anyone should have to endure alone.

He is battling advanced metastatic prostate cancer and severe triple vessel heart disease. The toll on his body has been immense—his strength, independence, and the life he once lived have all changed.

Stephen was once a hardworking man who supported himself through farming and working as a wedding planner in his community.He was also someone who quietly gave back, volunteering at his local church—cooking for priests

He is no longer able to work and is now fully dependent on my mother and I for financial support.

He requires medication costing around 25,000 rupees per week (approximately $600 NZD). My mother and I are doing everything we can to get him by, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to keep up.

He is also currently facing unexpected legal challenges regarding family property, which has added a heavy financial and emotional weight. Due to financial difficulties and his ill health we have not been able to get a lawyer for him in NZ yet.

Instead of focusing on healing, he is carrying the weight of stress alongside his illness. As Stephen's niece, it is heartbreaking to watch someone who has given so much now go through this.

If you are able to help, even in a small way, it would mean so much. If not, sharing this page would truly help.

Thank you for your kindness 🤍
