    We are so pleased to let everyone know that Bodhi has been discharged from hospital and is now home with his family. His recovery has gone as well as doctors had hoped, and although he still has follow-up appointments and ongoing care ahead, being home is a huge step forward.

    His family (especially his siblings!) are so happy he is home and are starting to settle back into a more normal routine, though they know the next few weeks will still bring challenges as Bodhi continues to heal. They are incredibly thankful for all of the support that has helped them manage travel, time away from home, and the financial pressures of this journey.

    The medical team at Starship are starting to take Bodhi off his medication to see how he manages over the next couple of days. While they keep a close eye on him, they’ll also be in touch with Dunedin Hospital to discuss the possibility of a transfer.

    Bodhi’s family are feeling a mix of nerves and hope as they wait to see how he goes, and they wanted to thank everyone for the kindness, encouragement, and generosity that has poured in since his diagnosis 💙

  • Post surgery update

    We’re so relieved and grateful to share that Bodhi has had his surgery and everything went as well as the doctors had hoped. His chest was successfully closed 24 hours after the operation, and he is now slowly being woken up.

    Today, he started responding to his Mum and Dad — a moment that brought so much joy and relief. Spirits are high, and his parents are feeling incredibly thankful.

    They would like to send a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has donated, shared the page, or sent messages of love and support. Your kindness has made a real difference during the most difficult days.

    There’s still a long road to recovery ahead, and we hope that Mum and Dad can remain by Bodhi’s side together in Auckland as he continues to heal.

    We’ll keep you updated as he continues to recover. 💛
