<div><em>Unser Niclas war erst 31 Jahre alt. Voller Leben, voller Pläne, voller Liebe.</em>
</div>
<div><em>Doch plötzlich, ohne jede Vorwarnung, wurde er aus seinem/unserem Leben gerissen. Mehrere Herzinfarkte haben seinen Körper schwer gezeichnet, und am 14. August 2025 mussten wir – nach wiederholten Untersuchungen – die furchtbare Wahrheit hören: Sein Gehirn hat den Schaden nicht überstanden. </em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Unser Nicci ist hirntot.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Am 15. August, spendete er seine Organe. Auch wenn unser Herz bricht, wissen wir, dass er damit anderen Menschen das Leben schenkt. Das ist typisch Nicci– selbst im Abschied gibt er Liebe und Hoffnung weiter.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Zurück lässt er seine geliebte Lebenspartnerin Louise, in der er, nach einer vierjährigen engen Freundschaft seine große Liebe fand. Die letzten 8 Jahre teilten die beiden wunderschöne Momente, Urlaube und waren ein eingeschweißtes Team. </em>
</div>
<div><em>Sie haben voller Liebe und Zuversicht in die Zukunft geschaut. </em>
</div>
<div><em>Vor fünf Jahren haben die beiden einen kleinen Wirbelwind aus Andalusien adoptiert, ihre Hündin Ivy, die das Leben der beiden bereichert(e). </em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Er hinterlässt außerdem seine Schwestern Jaimee und Frances, seinen kleinen Neffen Sam, seine Eltern Ulli und Joe sowie zahlreiche Menschen die ihn auf seinem Lebensweg begleitet haben. </em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Unsere Familie kommt gerade aus allen Teilen der Welt zusammen, um sich noch einmal von Nicci zu verabschieden.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Neben diesem Schmerz stehen wir nun vor einer weiteren schweren Realität:</em>
</div>
<div><em>Nicht nur die Kosten für die Beerdigung müssen gedeckt werden sondern, da Niclas und Louise nicht verheiratet waren, erhält sie keinerlei finanzielle Unterstützung für die laufenden Kosten, wie zum Beispiel die gemeinsame Wohnung, in die sie derzeit nicht zurückkehren kann und möchte. </em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Wir bitten euch von Herzen um Unterstützung, uns als Familie die Möglichkeit zu geben, in dieser schweren Zeit zusammenzuhalten und Louise zumindest die größte finanzielle Last zu nehmen.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Jeder Beitrag – egal in welcher Höhe – ist ein Stück Trost und Unterstützung in einer Zeit, in der wir uns nur schwer auf den Beinen halten können.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Wenn du gerade nicht spenden kannst, hilft es auch schon sehr, wenn du diese Aktion teilst.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Von Herzen sagen wir danke für deine Zeit, deine Unterstützung und Empathie. Für deinen Beistand. Für deine Hilfe. </em>
</div>
<div><em>Für Nicci. </em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>For our beloved Nicci</em>
</div>
<div><em>Our Niclas was only 31 years old – full of life, full of plans, full of love.</em>
</div>
<div><em>But suddenly, without any warning, he was taken from us. Several heart attacks severely damaged his body, and on August 14, 2025, we had to face the devastating truth: his brain had not survived the damage.</em>
</div>
<div><em>Our Nicci is brain-dead.</em>
</div>
<div><em>On August 15, he – true to who he was – donated his organs. Even though our hearts are breaking, he is giving others life, hope, and love.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>He leaves behind his partner Louise. After four years of close friendship, they found their great love in each other and shared the last eight years side by side. They created unforgettable memories, traveled together, and five years ago adopted their beloved dog Ivy from Andalusia.</em>
</div>
<div><em>Nicci is also survived by his sisters Jaimee and Frances, his little nephew Sam, his parents Ulli and Joe, as well as many friends and companions who were part of his journey.</em>
</div>
<div><em>Our family is now coming together from all over the world to say goodbye to him.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Alongside this immeasurable grief, we are faced with another difficult reality:</em>
</div>
<div><em>The funeral costs must be covered.</em>
</div>
<div><em>Since Niclas and Louise were not married, she is not entitled to any financial support. The ongoing expenses – such as their shared apartment, which she cannot and does not want to return to right now – are now resting solely on her shoulders.</em>
</div>
<div><em>We want to relieve Louise of this additional burden and give her the chance to grieve in peace.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Every contribution – no matter the size – is a piece of comfort and support.</em>
</div>
<div><em>And if you cannot donate at the moment, simply sharing this fundraiser already means so much to us.</em>
</div>
<div><em>From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your time, your compassion, and your support.</em>
</div>
<div><em>For Nicci. </em>
</div>
