Support Te Rima's Recovery

  • Goal update

      4 December 2024

    Firstly I want to thank each and every one of you who have donated to this page to help me on my healing journey and getting me to Thailand for the CAP therapy. I am overwhelmed with the amount of love and support I have received since posting my condition on my social media platforms, I did not expect it at all. I appreciate every single one of you, my family, my friends, and even people I don't know who have contributed, thank you all so so much.

    Just as I thought we were nearing closer to my goal, I received the costs of the CAP therapy from the clinic in Thailand, who have been recommended to me by so many other TSW warriors, and its going to cost more than what I expected so I have had to increase the goal post.

    This amount will help with mine and my mothers return flights to Bangkok from Auckland, NZ, accommodation, transport costs, food and utilities, and the CAP therapy for 6 months. I am bringing my mother with me as my support for the first month over the holidays to help me during the first stages of therapy. Our goal is to leave for Bangkok next week so I can go through the consultation and start my first session as soon as possible. The sooner I can get there the better.

    I believe everything will fall into place at the right time and with everyone's koha (donations) and prayers this will all come to past.

    Thank you all again for your love and support.

  • Medical costs and Parental support

      14 November 2024

    As I have over-looked the costs of everything I have adjusted the end goal to support medical costs and I will be taking my mother with me as I am too debilitated to travel and look after myself at this raw stage.

      Hi Te Rima.

      I was feeling reassured when I read your article on stuff last night. I thought to contact you but can’t find a direct contact as my 22 year old son is suffering the same thing as you. I thought it would be useful if we can talk to you about it? It would be kindly appreciated. Let us know if you can. Maria and Dylon
