Help us support Sophie, a brave and beautiful soul, in her journey with Stage 4 cancer.

Matakana, Auckland

I am reaching out on behalf of my dear friend, Sophie, an incredible woman who has brought so much light, love, and joy to those fortunate enough to know her. Sophie has been facing a courageous battle against terminal stage 4 cancer since 2021 and is undergoing treatments to keep fighting.

She is currently trying to make the most out of her funded conventional options here in New Zealand, but would love the opportunity to go overseas to some integrative clinics to support her healing and also weekly therapies locally that help support her quality of life.

She has reached a point where the financial burden of ongoing treatments, including those that are not government-funded from overseas, is overwhelming.

Sophie is a devoted mother to two beautiful children ages 4 and 7 and a loving wife to Jamie. Her greatest wish is to continue creating cherished memories with her children as they grow. This is not a life she is willing to give up on.

She has given so much of herself to her community and is a passionate advocate for others in need. Now, we are rallying to support her in return.

Your donation no matter what size will make a profound difference. With your help we can ensure Sophie gets the best possible chance at giving her family more time to spend with their incredibly lovely lady, that we all love so deeply.

A heartfelt thank you  20 November 2024

A heartfelt thank you to everyone for your incredible generosity. Your contributions have provided us with much-needed respite and have allowed me to add a few valuable elements to my protocol that will make a real difference.

The funds raised so far will continue to support my weekly treatments, which bring comfort and quality to my days. I’m also deeply fortunate to have a very special friend who has kindly offered to cover the cost of the international treatment I hope to pursue. Much love Sophie X

Sophie and her family are profoundly grateful for your support. Your kindness has lifted her spirits and renewed her strength to keep moving forward. Thank you for being part of this journey with her.

I’ll now be closing this give a little page. Thank you so much Clara xx
