Please help the Adams family ❤️ Anything helps

Please help me raise funds for my parents and the hard road they face ahead... on the 18th of February on my parents 10th year wedding anniversary we were told my father has lung cancer and it doesn’t look like it can be operated on. On the 26th of February we had our worst fears confirmed... it’s in lymph nodes and he’s terminal with no window of how long we have left with him. With a lot of expected time off work coming up, as he is going to try an aggressive radiation or chemo to buy us more time with him things are going to get very hard for them financially. With no life insurance or savings to help money is a real stress for them so I am setting up this page to try take some of the stress off their shoulders. Unfortunately money can’t buy us more time with him but it can help so much in many other ways so please absolutely anything helps 💔 we would be so grateful to any donations thank you for taking the time to read this xx

I am Trevor’s daughter and just want to help my dad and mum in any way I can 💔

Use of funds

To help financially with bills, mortgage power food etc .. when Trevor is going through radiation and chemo. And possibly even try private treatment to give us more time with him

Good news! 19 March 2021

So we have had some really great news this week! We got the results back from his scan done in Christchurch and they have said it’s not as bad as it looked in the scans from Dunedin and have said there is a small chance they could cure it ! They are going to go hard with both radiation and chemotherapy for 5 weeks which is going to be very hard for Trev but it’s our best chance. We couldn’t be more thrilled with these results, even a small chance is something for us to hope for when we were originally told there is no chance it is to far into lymph nodes to cure. We are hoping treatment will start in the next 4 weeks.

Come on dad you can beat this xx

On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
