Mike needs our help in his battle against throat cancer

Hey everyone,

Let's rally around our dear friend and family member Michael Vickers as he faces a tough battle against throat cancer.

For years, Michael has dedicated his life to exploring the world and helping others find their way back into the workforce. Now, it's our turn to lend a helping hand.

In October of this year, Michael received the devastating news that he has throat cancer, which also involves his tonsils. He has already undergone the removal of his tonsils, but now he needs both chemotherapy and radiation treatments simultaneously. The road ahead won't be easy, as the radiation will make it difficult for him to eat and work.

This Givealittle page is an opportunity for us to come together and show our support for Michael. Your generous contributions will help ease the financial burden of medical expenses, allowing him to focus on his treatment and recovery without the added stress of financial worries. He also has little to no support in Christchurch.

Let's stand by Michael's side during this challenging journey. Any amount, big or small, will make a difference and show him how much he is loved and supported.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity. Together, we can make a positive impact in Michael's life.

Please keep Michael and his family in your thoughts
