Help surround Team Willetts with love, hope and practical support as Nicki fights for more precious time with her family.
Christchurch, Canterbury
Cancer has touched many of us in some way, and we know the worry and heartbreak this disease can bring. Many of us understand how precious time, memories, and moments with loved ones truly are.
Today, we are asking for your help to make that possible for Team Willetts: Nicki, Tim, Taylor, Sam, Jessica and Jackson.
At just 46, Nicki with her hubby Tim, and their beautiful children are facing something no family should have to endure. Nicki has been diagnosed with Chloangiocarcinoma - a rare terminal cancer of the bile ducts in her liver. Without effective treatment, she has been given months to live. To give Nicki as much time as possible, her treatment plan involves navigating complex options, combining chemotherapy alongside advanced targeted therapies and immunotherapies that are not publicly funded.
Team Willetts give so much of their time to the wider community, especially through sport, church, and school connections. Now it is our turn to support them. In difficult times, many of us want to help but do not always know where to start. Your support can help ease some of the financial pressure, giving Nicki and Tim space to focus on the road ahead. Nicki is positive, courageous, and resilient, and she has never been one to shy away from a challenge. We stand with her, Tim and their family in hope and support as she fights to defy the odds.
Any donation, no matter the size, will help give Nicki something incredibly precious: more time with her family.
We've had the pleasure of knowing Nicki and Tiny since the early Colts rugby days with Marist Albion. Back then we were all young, childless and carefree - and we've been lifelong friends ever since!
Every dollar raised will go directly to Nicki and Tim to choose how to spend. Contributions may help with unfunded treatment (page updates will be provided when we know more about treatment options), travel, everyday living costs, a holiday, or special family moments that bring hope, comfort, respite, and precious memories.
