That Brain Tumour Chick - Stacey Gardner

Stacey is an amazing solo Mum to her 2 gorgeous kids - Ada-Rhiane (8y) and Rocco (7y), an adored daughter, sister, friend, niece, cousin, teacher & so much more. 2 years ago their whole world was turned upside down when Stacey was diagnosed with a large Astrocytoma tumour in her brain. She had immediate surgery and heavy chemo & radiotherapy to try and get control of the cancer. This managed to stabilize the tumour and Stace and the kids were able to return to normal life for a while - but sadly not long enough.

Her tumour is now back and progressing fast 😔 The family have been rocked by her swift decline and Stace can no longer be on her own & care for her precious kids. Her parents, Robb & Robyn, have taken over full-time care of Stacey, & Ada & Rocco, and we want to help them anyway we can!

We have set up this Givealittle page to support & ease the pressure on this loving family as they face the weeks, and hopefully months, ahead. Their village wants to help, and this is one way we can. The funds raised will go towards Stacey's care (as there is minimal hospice support in the Rotorua district), support for the family & hopefully the chance for the kids to make some more memories with their adored Mum. Anything else will go towards Ada-Rhiane & Rocco's future.

Stacey is only 32years old and she had her whole life ahead of her, & to watch her kids grow - we are all devastated 💔

Stace - we love you and will ALWAYS be here supporting your incredible family XX
