Little Groube's Journey

$6,290 of $2,500 goal
Given by 139 generous donors in around 12 months

Josiah has CDH. He is in Starship Hospital and is fighting hard to stay with us. We want to raise enough to bring the family together.

Manawatu / Whanganui

Josiah has spent most of his short life in hospital because he was born with a Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia. He is currently in Auckland Pediatric Intensive Care Unit and is seriously unwell with life threatening health problems. This is a situation no parent ever wants to be in.

His parents are kind, generous and community minded. They are both trained teachers who will go out of their way to help anyone who needs a hand. They have sacrificed a lot to be able to care for their much loved little boy, but this time in Auckland will stretch the family's resources to tipping point.

Because of the level of care Josiah needs, his family has rarely been able to be together (Josiah has a big brother and sister). Now we want to give back to our friends who give so much, by raising enough money to bring all the family together in Auckland. Money raised will also go towards their ongoing day to day expenses. Please join with us to help this family meet their expenses so that they can focus getting through this incredibly difficult time.

This page was opened when Josiah was born, to give family and friends a central place to give financial support to Susan and Jason through Josiah's initial surgery and long period of hospitalization.

We are reopening this page due to Josiah's recent deterioration in health.
