Help the Hobbit in Her Fight with Cancer
Help Anna, a kind and adventurous soul, as she bravely fights cancer with resilience and hope — donate to support her treatment and recovery
Auckland
Anna - a kind, generous, and adventurous soul of a hobbit, as she calls herself, who loves hiking, savoring the beauty of the ocean, reading a good book and helping others. Her love for life is boundless, but now her journey has taken a difficult turn.
Diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, Anna has endured 2 months of chemo, one more to go, working through all of it. Soon, she’ll face a bilateral mastectomy, ovaries removal, radiation therapy and further medication. With a severely compromised immune system, she’s confined to her home except for hospital visits.
Her body is battling liver and kidney complications, blood issues and extreme fatigue. She’s lost her hair, energy, and freedom, yet remains resilient and hopeful — like the brave hobbits she admires.
Despite her strength, the financial burden is immense. With no one else to help, she’s reaching out to her community.

The Journey Continues 4 August 2025
Hi everyone,
Every day Anna gets up and shows the world what strength and determination is. Never give up our brave hobbit!
She has been through a lot recently and is continuing her brave journey: she went through the special high precision radiation treatment and is out of the hospital now.
For the next three months she will be going through the dynamic light therapy which will further help reducing the risk of metastasis.
She is doing a few more things approaching it holistically to ensure she is on track to get healthy and get to the life she desires as soon as possible.
The good news is there are some subtle but very promising signs of healing which gives us all even more hope.
As always, immense gratitude to everyone supporting her - every thought, word, share, donation - every little bit counts. Please continue to support her as she can do this only with our support.
