Karl lost his battle of stage 4 cancer

Taranaki

2 years ago in December.. we were told our father Karl Taylor has stage 4 lung cancer,

He was given only 2 months to live.

A lot of you guys may already know his journey from his past page (https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/help-for-karl) and with the help of many we were able to raise money and Karl was able to live longer. 2 years longer! And in that time he not only fought his battle he thought it for others he marched for breast cancer in Wellington.

Fast fwd 2 years Karl our beloved dad, son, granddad saddley lost his battle of cancer 💔 8.12.2020 he passed away.

He spent the last few months suffering in pain but still found the strength to help others even tho he wasn’t able to do much,

Karl didn’t have much nor does he have much left at this hard time a funeral is going to cost us around 8grand plus a head stone in the future being around 4K we are all pulling together to help but we still are around 4K short. We just want to give dad the send off he deserve with the suffering he had to deal with in the end,

Any help small or big will be greatly appreciated 🙏💕

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.

My thoughts are with you during this tough time. My late partner benefited from being on a trial drug Alectinib which prolonged and gave him a quality life. These drugs should have greater access.
