💕To help our gorgeous girl Shakaiya and her family during her battle with Cancer💕

Manawatu / Whanganui

This lil miss had even the best of the best doctors scratching there heads she arrived at starship just a lil under two weeks ago, has since had two biopsys were they cut into the tissue above her eye leaving her with a massive bruise to her already swollen eye. The doctors still unsure sent her results to Boston for second opinion from doctors more experienced with her condition thankfully we finally have some answers.

She has been diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma a cancer of soft tissue.

Shakaiya started chemo 7th of October 2017 surrounded by her parents Teiria and Daniel, her siblings Tiwene & Aurora, step mama Eden and two fav auntys Rose and I

Her first few days following the treatment were very challenging for lil miss being only 6 she is convinced the pain relief and anti-nausea medication is what's making her so sick and every dose is a battle for whom ever has to administer it

This little beauty came in this world far too early but a natrual born fighter, cancer is only going to be a chapter in your life beautiful girl not the whole story xx

Reopening pu  29 March 2018

Reopening as when first diagnosed i thought all treatment ended in February.

Unfortunately I was wrong and only Radiation was due to finsh that month we are only at the hallway mark 😢

Donations have gone towards flying tiwene up assisting with food and travel, Shakaiya often doing daily radiation and chemo hasn’t been well enough to really get out and do a lot so a good portion of the donations are sitting waiting for her to be well enough to do something fun with her siblings
