Please support the Comerford's in their time of need by gathering up your mates and family members and participating or/and by making a donation.
Brendan and Raukawa are a hard working couple supporting their four children, including youngest, 3yo Jacob. Earlier this year Brendan was diagnosed with bowel cancer and is presently off work recovering from his operation. Chemotherapy is pending. As if the family did not have enough to cope with, baby Jacob in the last few days has been diagnosed with a brain tumour. This necessitated his urgent transfer from Wellington to Christchurch to receive critical treatment.
Consequently, the family has relocated to Christchurch at very short notice to support Jacob for the duration of his operation and recovery and Brendan will undergo his treatment in Christchurch as well.
Thank you for showing your Aroha.
We are friends and friends of friends of the Comerfords and we want to our support to them through this difficult time
