$576 donated
Given by 19 generous donors in 8 days

My mother has just passed away from stage four metastatic breast cancer, on the 27th of August 2019

Manawatu / Whanganui

Melissa was diagnosed with stage for aggressive cancer in 2014, it became terminal in 2017 metastatic, which means it’s spread into her bone and organs. Mum has fought a long hard journey with this cancer and it has been very cruel to watch. At this time we want peace for Melissa no stresses about financial situations such as her funeral etc.

Meilssa has two beautiful children she loves dearly, a loved partner and sister that shes fighting to stay alive for.

Unfortunately Meilssa passed on the 27 of August peacefully at hospice care with family around her

And now she is, rest in paradise mum.

My mother is dead.   25 October 2019

I know who reported my page, you have no mercy. You know what the money was spent on and where the rest is for her head stone. I lost everything. Necklaces were bought full of her ashes, $100 each for my brother, mother sister and I . 250 is in a savings account waiting till my family stop rejecting me and help with a head stone. It’s a never ending horror losing you mum all this happened to me once you were gone.
