Keeping the Cooper family together thru the worse time of their lives
Wellington
My darling grandaughter Faith has been recently admitted to hospital in Australia and has been diagnosed with the very dangerous Strep B Meningitis .
Her parents Christal ( from otaki) and Aaron are by her side as she continues to fight but they cant do it together for much longer as Aaron is self employed.
Im hoping to raise enough funds for him to be able to at the very least only have to work a few hours a day so he can be with Christal most of the time to support her during this terrible time.
As most of you will know Faith is extra special to this family as shes a bonus baby after 9 years and 3 boys.
please give as much or as little as you can because believe me every bit will count
Im trying to help my daughter and son in law be able to spend precious time with their very ill baby.
The funds will be used to top up rent payments, fuel to and from the hospital each day, hospital parking etc

A little Faith update from Christal
....and it's all good news!
We can finally say faith is a meningitis survivor ❤️❤️
Yesterday we had a successful MRI with no sedation and the results where great.
The MRI showed drastic improvements in the frontal and temporal lobes,with a lot of the matter from the first MRI completely gone.
There are still signs that she had meningitis but at this early stage it's still to be expected.
The doctors are extremely happy with what they have seen 😊
She also got her picc line out yesterday which was so exciting because I've been terrified of getting it caught on something or faith pulling at it,but it was well worth having a picc and not having to do cannula's every few days.
As this journey for her ends another one is just beginning really,this year will be filled with appointments,her first being next week for physiotherapy and her hearing in the first week of May followed up by her first assessment from her paediatrician.
But the most important thing of all is we get to just let her get on with living her baby life now,full of fun laughter and happiness.
Thank you again to everyone that has helped in any way shape or form,has sent kind messages and just been there for us in general,I could never put into words just how much all of it has meant to us xx
