Support Dani in this difficult time as he heals

Nelson / Tasman

Dear friends, family and community,

As many of you know, my partner Dani is a very passionate skydiver. Three weeks ago, he flew to Denmark to work as a skydive instructor during the Danish high season. It was an amazing job opportunity to do what he loves most.

Unfortunately, on his first day skydiving he had a bad landing and injured himself quite severely. He broke his lower back and has had to have two surgeries. He is now at the hospital recovering. In his condition, he won’t be able to fly back to recover at home in New Zealand for several months, so his family and I will be taking turns to travel to Denmark to support him during his rehabilitation. I’ve started this fundraiser to support his medical, rehabilitation and costs of our travel so that we can be with Dani in this difficult time as he heals. Thank you so much, everything helps. Much love, Luisa

A Big Thank You  24 July 2021

Hello lovely people! The fundraiser has come to an end now. Dani and I would like to thank you all so very much for your help, support and contribution to his journey of recovery. Only 3 weeks remain until he flies back home where he will be with family. He is healing really well, walking now with the help of crutches. This has been an incredible journey so far, plenty of emotions, physical pain and a lot of personal growth. Dani always says how grateful he is for all your support, having people stand with you is beautiful. Thank you once again, to all of you and wishing you good health.

Luisa
