Zoe Trim is 16 months old and has just been diagnosed with a rare muscle Cancer. Please help support her family to stay by her side.

Taranaki

Zoe is a beautiful, bright and cheeky wee girl that is loved by everyone who knows her.

In April Zoe began to have trouble going to the toilet, then 2 weeks later she began to experience some pain in her stomach. Just a short week later Zoe's parents Cameron and Nadia took Zoe in to A&E and now they are in Starship hospital in Auckland facing a scary fight.

Zoe has a very large tumour on her right side of her abdomen, it is affecting her bowel, ovary, kidney and impacting on her ability to walk. A team of specialist doctors have diagnosed Zoe with Rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare muscle cancer. Further tests have identified that the Cancer has spread to the bone in her left leg.

The long term treatment plan for Zoe is Chemotherapy for up to a year therefore Cameron and Nadia will be back and Forth to Auckland from Taranaki on a regular basis. To remain by Zoe's side they are unable to work so have no income. We hope to raise enough money to help support Cameron, Nadia, Zoe and her 4 year old brother Louis over the coming weeks and allow them to stay together.

Please support this family in any way you can, any donations will be so gratefully received!
