Jase's Journey with Terminal Cancer

Auckland

Jase and Emma's Words: "After returning back from an awesome Japow holiday over the New Year, I didn't feel 100% as I was recovering from covid, and fatigue levels continued to increase.

On the 1st of Feb 2024 - we were made aware of a primary cancerous tumour in my bowel that had spread into my liver. After meeting with incredible specialists, this was diagnosed as a rare type of cancer & terminal.

It has been all action since then with chemotherapy starting on the 14th of Feb. My chemo consists of 5 cycles of 21 days. On the first 3 days I receive the chemo at a clinic, then give the chemo 18 days to work its magic.

Outlook - The million dollar question - we are hoping that the chemo can stabilise the cancer, but it is unknown how the cancer will react to chemo.

While the whole situation is unfortunate, we're so grateful for our whānau & friends, the people we've met, the places we've been and the things we've done 🙂 The support and love Emma and I have felt from those around us has meant so much!"

This Givealittle page provides an opportunity for people to donate and follow along with Jase and Emma's journey.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed so generously to support Jase and Emma's fight! We're overwhelmed at the support being received from friends, family, businesses and extended network.

As Jase heads into his 4th (of 6) chemo cycle this week we're stoked to share results from an interim scan have indicated that the tumors have been responding positively to treatment and appear to be reducing in size - we'll hold our breath for the results of the full screening at the end of the initial chemo cycle in 8 weeks.

Shout out to the whanau for the MoveforWep mahi on Facebook/Instagram and the 1/2 marathons going on around the globe to fundraise and support J&E.
