Those who walk Josh’s life with him, now sit at his bedside hoping for a miracle that will bring the Josh they know and love back to them.
Bay of Plenty
Josh Dyer
Did you ever meet one of those kids that you thought, “this guy is going to be a leader, a creator, a great husband and dad when he gets older.”
At 17 years, old Josh was the National Secondary School Triathlon champion, a dedicated athlete that had huge talent and urge to win.
At 21 years Josh was diagnosed as having an ongoing illness.
And so, began a journey that no matter how hard Josh tried the “voices” in Josh’s head took over this gentle and talented young man and goaded him to self-harm. Josh chose to self-harm and he now lies in Waikato Hospital with a non-functional brain.
Life for Josh is not remembered by his mental illness but by his SMILE, kindness and determination to always improve in all areas of his life with family, sport and career. You would always make the most of his happiness and appreciate every moment of his caring and generous spirit.
Those who walk Josh’s life with him, now sit at his bedside hoping for a miracle that will bring the Josh they know and love back to them.
We would all like to be there with Josh as he starts this journey of hope, and despair at the thought that his recovery is so uncertain.
However, we can all help Josh’s young family. His wife, 10-year-old son, 6-year-old son and 3-year-old daughter by making a donation to cater for the support the family needs at this time, his children’s education and their future.
I thank you for your consideration of this plea for Josh.
Regards,
Bruce Trask MNZM
PS If you know Josh or his family or want to help please use your social media contacts to spread the word “Give a Little”
I am a long time friend of Josh and his family.
The funds raised will be dedicated to the needs of the family and in particular the ongoing education of their children.
Remembering Josh Dyer at this special time. 7 December 2017
It has been just over three months since our friend and mate passed away. Both the family and I are absolutely encouraged by the amount raised so far for Teaarani and her children. As you can imagine this is a really hard time for them especially as Josh always played Father Christmas for the family.
Josh's ashes have been scattered at one of his favourite places at the Mt. If you forgot or missed giving to Josh's Give a Little page, now is the time to please help this wonderful family. Regards and best wishes for the Festive Season. Bruce Trask MNZM
