Help our Beautiful Dad get the Care he Deserves

  • THANK YOU!

      23 October 2024

    Kia ora koutou,

    We are incredibly moved by the generosity, love, and support you’ve all shown for our Dad. Thanks to your donations, he has been able to access the private care he desperately needed, and we can’t express how much it means to us.

    Dad recently met with his private oncologist, who has created a treatment and pain management plan. The total cost for two rounds of chemotherapy and associated treatments is around $15,000. He was scheduled to begin chemotherapy this week, but due to the risk of the cancer reaching his spinal cord, he underwent radiation first. Chemotherapy will now start next week.

    The plan is for Dad to complete these two rounds of private chemotherapy and, with your help, we hope he can then continue his treatment through the public system.

    We want to emphasize how incredibly thankful Dad is for every single contribution. Without your support, he would still be waiting for care, facing unbearable pain. Your kindness has given him access to the treatment he needs without the agonizing wait, and he is deeply appreciative.

    While this is an incredibly difficult time for our whānau, knowing that there are so many of you out there wrapping us in aroha and care has been a source of great comfort. Your generosity has not only given us hope but has also shown us the power of community during hardship.

    Ngā mihi nui, from the bottom of our hearts, for your aroha, tautoko, and koha. We will continue to update you on Dad’s progress.
