Helping Jeremy fight back against Leukemia.
Dunedin, Otago
On 23 December 2023, Jeremy was diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia. Since then he has been in and out of the hospital with 2 cycles of chemotherapy and dealing with the side effects and contracting E-Coli.
Despite Jeremy nearing remission, he had a setback and the chemotherapy is no longer working and another cycle would cause other health issues. Jeremy has been allowed to try two drugs, Azacitidine and Venetoclax, however, they aren't funded and they are expensive.
Jeremy and his wife have two children, the youngest was born two years ago and has a lifelong physical disability. This has resulted in Jeremy's wife needing to be a stay-at-home mum to care for their youngest full-time.
As Jeremy has been the main income earner, his health has now taken a considerable toll on their finances as he has been unable to work for the past four months, and day-to-day living has become a struggle, let alone trying to fund medication that is over a thousand dollars a month.
We ask for any assistance anyone can offer to help Jeremy and his young family work through this tough period.
Jeremy is one of my younger brothers.
