Our friend Fynn, whom some of you may know,  has been on an epic journey. It started back in 2013 when he received the unwelcome news that he had brain cancer called Medulloblastoma.

Fynn was only 7 years old. His surgery to remove the tumour left him completely disabled. He followed a long rehab journey while undergoing 18 months of horrible treatment, including radiation and chemo to treat the cancer. He fought hard, and it was really hard, and he overcame a lot. He learnt how to walk, and talk again, he beat the cancer and managed to get healthy enough to enjoy life again.

Regretfully his family had to return to New Zealand and our family had to say farewell. We parted company with promises to stay in touch and make another family holiday happen sometime in the future. He had 2 great years of being a kid again.

Sadly in July 2017 he was diagnosed with a new brain tumour, this time a Glioma, likely caused by the treatment for his first cancer. What a cruel and ironic twist. Fynn had another surgery, followed by more radiation and some chemo. Because he had already had a lot of drugs there were not a lot of options for long term treatment for this diagnosis. Fynn being Fynn, took this in his stride and continued with his life. He continued to enjoy school and his friends - at the start of this year he began his intermediate school journey at a new school. He has been going so well and just loving life. Unfortunately this has been changing over the last month or so. The Glioma is starting to take over his brain, and he is having more and more symptoms, and he is now terminal.

We would love to see him again and as he is not allowed to fly we would love to take our awesomeness to him in New Zealand. We do need some help and humbly ask for whatever you may be able to gift  us to get us there to see Fynn again and make some memories with him. It would mean so much to us, but it would mean even more to Fynn.

Hopefully we can meet Fynn middle July 2018!
