Paulo's Journey
Paulo recently & unexpectedly diagnosed with Cancer, will require Funded & Non-Funded Chemotherapy to give him the best possible outcome.
Auckland
Paulo is known by many not just for his loyalty and gentle nature, but for his ongoing commitment and loyalty to his valued role as an Orderly in DCCM.
On his very recent and unexpected diagnosis of having Cancer, we appreciate there maybe many that would like to show their love and support for Paulo and his close family & friends .
We have created this page for that very purpose to allow expressions of support to be shared and read at Paulo's discretion .
He will require both Funded & Non-Funded Chemotherapy to allow for the best possible outcome and therefore any Donations will also be greatfully received .
I will endeavor to keep you all updated with his progress as Paulo permits me to do so .
Much love Angie & Paulo

Sadness & Change 19 August 2018
Just over 4 weeks in … sadness is a daily struggle which i push on through with the Love Paulo & i had and the Strength he displayed during Our Cancer Journey.
Sadly Systems & Bureaucracy heavily impact on the Grieving process in a hugely negative way.
I have felt so demeaned, undervalued, ignored and mistreated thoughout my experience with MSD,local MPs and the lawyer, at such a traumatic time in my life.
I have not only lost a husband ive lost my Best Mate, my sons Daddy … im now a “Solo Parent” that was never signed up for!
It took me over 20 years to find my “Family Man” and now hes been taken away Forever from his daughters & son and Me!
Not only have we lost a truly loved one but our lifestyle our routine our family home has become only Mum & Son … no daddy … Zayne is finding this tough now !
The Permanence of his absence is showing in every day life. Its not fair!!!
I now have a huge change financially to contend with … an apparent $60k + Drop income to cover the costs we initially comfortably covered between 2 Wages however then down to one then to none. Now its Sole Parent Benefit … not treated with any compassion care or particular concern as to how this impacts ne!
Nothing prepares you for shame , vulnerability & utter sense of loss you feel sitting in those offices.
My life has been turned inside out literally … nothing will ever be the same :(
My biggest challenge aside from the Procress of Grief is the Concept of being a Sole Parent with heavy financial losses!! That just sux and is destroying me inside.
Any contributions from now will go toward Our Monthly outgoings & to maintain Zayne recreational classes and his Transition to School & associated cost in September/October .
Just please if we could keep the Cause moving to orovide Zayne & i with a little more support that would valued and greatly appreciated ❤️
Mich love Angie & Zayne
