Support Arley and his parents through there fight against meningitis.

Wellington

Little Arley is currently in Wellington Hospital fighting bacterial meningitis. This has moved rapidly and he has already been through surgery. We are still unclear of the extent of his fight (will update when more is learnt) but we do know there is a long, uncertain road ahead for him recovery wise.

Parents Kirstin and Cam have been absolute rocks for Arley and are spending every minute by his side. We want to gather funds to help support them all over this Christmas period (and further down the track) so they can focus on Arley, and not have financial stresses on top of it all.

Any donations are so appreciated by the family - if you have questions please contact us

Rest now our darling boy  19 January 2023

Family and Friends,

We are heartbroken to share that our darling boy Arley passed away yesterday afternoon. Many of you will know that Arley was admitted to hospital on 19 December and quickly transferred to Starship ICU where he battled his little heart out against Pneumococcal Meningitis. Words will never adequately articulate our devastation but we are beyond proud of Arley. We loved him so HARD, and will continue to do so for the rest of our lives.

We want to thank each and every one of you for your kind messages and support for us and Arley over the last month. We couldn’t get through this without you all.

Please remember Arley for the beautiful, cheeky, clever, blue-eyed and smiley boy that he was.

Time to rest your soul, our beautiful boy xxx

💙💙💙

Cam and Kirstin xx
