Many thanks to all
2 February 2019In July I set up a Give a little page to help my sister Julia pay for the cost of much need drug, Keytruda to help her battle with a rare melanoma. The total cost of the the 17 infusions is $83k. At the end of last month we closed the page off with a staggering $58,384 of donations. This was way in excess of our expectations. To all of you who donated a huge thanks.
The giving came from such a wide source of people its was indeed very humbling. Julia's family and that family's friends, relatives and their work mates. Her own work, their staff and their colleagues, her friends both old and new, the Dugdale Foundation,Chief's Rugby Players, and people who she has have meet. The geographical spread was from near and far and right across the globe.
New Zealanders & people in general are truely giving and generous.
Yesterday Julia had her 9th Infusion so over 50% there.To date except for some minor side effects all is going well, with medical reports being positive. once again a big thanks to you all not only for the financial assistance but the moral support & your genuine kindness, its been overwhelming
