It is with a truly grateful, and incredibly full heart that I reach out to thank you, my generous friends and whanau, for the insurmountable and overwhelming love, support and generosity you continue to show me.

Bless you all for renewing my hope and faith in all that is possible. Over the past 5 months, I have spent countless hours questioning my life and whether the cost of saving it is justified. The thought of creating a Give a little Page was incredibly uncomfortable and is still challenging for me. Growing up with little; putting my hands out, being outwardly vulnerable and asking for help, has always been difficult and not something my whanau do. For this reason, I am forever grateful to my darling Heidi, for starting my page for me xx
When asked, the hardest part of this breast cancer journey has been watching the pain my loved ones are going through, suffering from the sidelines. It breaks me to know that there is no ACC cover or income protection for those diagnosed with cancer, so every donation generously gifted is enabling my whanau and I to pay off my Breast Cancer Surgery and to afford my ongoing cancer treatment, care and associated costs.
To receive the outpouring of donations from you all has had my parents, Lucy and Pete, in disbelief and tears. We are incredibly humbled knowing that even given these tough times, that you continue to dig so deeply to help me fight this fight. There are no words that can adequately express how much gratitude and love I have for each and every one of you.
Aroha nui for believing in me, for valuing me and for continuing to generously donate towards my battle with breast cancer.
E kore e ea i te kupu taku aroha mōu 💚s
