Nanni Noels needs us e te whānau!

If you know Noels, you know she is the one who is always there for everyone else. A devoted mum, loving wife, proud nanni, passionate teacher, and sports lover, she has spent her life giving her time, energy, and heart to others. Over the past eight months, Noels has been bravely going through a healing journey with multiple myeloma, facing relentless treatment with incredible strength and positivity.

Sadly, the treatment giving her the best chance is not funded in New Zealand (it is govt funded in 47 other countries but not here). The most effective drug is Daratumumab and is administered in Chch at 10k per shot. Following a stem cell transplant in Feb (in chch for 6 weeks), the preferred treatment for the maintenance plan, will be Dara for a period of time.

After already spending some considerable retirement funds, right now, Kezza and Noels need the same kindness and support they have always so freely given.

Any help, big or small, will make a real difference and mean the world to the whānau.
