Gloria's been diagnosed with Terminal Liver Cancer, she has just months to live. Help her spend her final days with her loved ones

Bay of Plenty

My beautiful mother Gloria has been diagnosed with Metastatic Liver Cancer, she is terminal and has been given just months to live. She will be undergoing extremely expensive immunotherapy treatment ($60,000 total), which herself and Case will be using their own funds to cover, we hope that this will help to boost her immune system to prolong her life by a few months, however the odds are not looking good.

Her only wish is to spend her last days with her family, and so, with this in mind we are raising funds to be able to go on a family trip together, here in NZ so she is close to her medical team if needed. We are not asking for much, just enough to cover a decent trip away including a house or apartment for herself, her husband Case, her children Dane & Heidi and their partners Laurie and Paul and granddaughter Luca. We would love to be able to spend as much time as possible with our mother, doing the things she wants to do while she still can, and make her final days count.

Thank you for hearing our story, your help is appreciated beyond words. It would mean the world for us to be able to spend these moments together as a family.
