Help for a family in need
Kia ora all, a friend's relative of mine from India contacted her about this family in Auckland. She got in touch with them Yesterday morning and have been with them in the hospital since afternoon.
Their story: moved to NZ 3 years ago with wife and a young daughter. Son was born on 4th May this year through c-section. 3 weeks ago JP’s speech started slurring and doctors diagnosed 3 brain tumours. He is currently unresponsive. Family doesn’t know many people in NZ and with him not being able to work and wife on maternity leave, they can do with any help we all can provide.
Friend has started a givealittle fund page.Any contributions welcome.

Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
