Please help us raise funds for Pokis AIRVO Machine to aid his breathing .

Auckland

Poki(Pokoina) has been on a long and tough battle with Cancer , Sleep Apnoea and Sinus Disease .

The Sleep Apnoea has caused Poki to have weak lungs and heart , because of this he cannot undergo any form of surgery. Our main focus now is on providing what he needs to be comfortable and being with Whanau .

Jo(Fiance) Is busy trying to get their home fit for when he returns . They will need an AIRVO machine to help aid Pokis breathing, this is a must! The hospitals normally can provide this machine however there is a shortage at the moment . (High demand)

Poki and Jo have been through so much over the past year ! I know they would appreciate anything big or small , it all helps 100%
