Angels cancer diagnosis journey

Kainga, Christchurch

Hey everyone ✨️

Just one week ago, I underwent major surgery to remove part of my intestines due to finding out i have bowel cancer. I’m at the very beginning of what will be a long road to recovery and ongoing treatment.

Right now, my focus needs to be on healing — physically and mentally. Unfortunately, this also means I’m unable to work for the time being, and the financial pressure of everyday life doesn’t pause for situations like this.

I have bills that still need to be paid, and animals at home who rely on me every single day. Making sure my babies are fed, cared for, and safe is incredibly important to me, and the thought of not being able to provide for them during this time adds an extra layer of stress I’m trying to manage.

This Givealittle page has been created to help ease that burden. Any support will go directly towards covering basic living costs, and ensuring my babies are looked after while I go through treatment and recovery.🐶🐱🐔🐟🦜

If you’re not in a position to donate, even sharing this page would mean the world to me!

I’m so grateful for the love, kindness, and support I’ve already received so many people around me — it truly means more than I can put into words.

Thank you for being here and for helping me get through this.

With all my love,

Angel 🧡🫶✨️

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.
