Wellington

Hi, we are urgently asking for help to raise vital funds for our daughter, sister, niece, granddaughter, cousin and loved friend to many, Wairere. She was diagnosed on the 20th of January (2021) with stage 4 breast cancer. Unfortunately the cancer is very aggressive and has riddle her body with tumours. However she has a fighting chance to beat it given her young age of 22, paired with careful treatment options.

She has already begun radiation therapy treatment and so far is responding well. It will take some time to fully know how successful the treatment is but she is surrounded by whānau and friends as we fight to beat this cancer.

She is feeling better now that they have her medicated to manage the pain and has her spirits higher than ever.

Please, we ask only in this time of need that you give what you can to help our Wairere endure a battle no 22yr old should. All updates will be posted below so please keep checking in to see how she is progressing.

Latest update

Out of hospital  22 February 2021

Treatment so far has been yeilding positive results with radiotherapy finished and the first round of chemotherapy over. Unfortunately the doctors had misdiagnosed the type of cancer incorrectly twice and are now unsure as to what it is. A biopsy has been done and has to be sent overseas to be analysied to determine what type of cancer it is and from there the most effective treatment options.

Wairere has been discharged from hospital but will still go in for chemotherapy treatments for the time being. She is in good spirits and is very greatful to everyone for all their love and support, it has made this journey that much easier.

Thank you again to everyone for the support.
