Hi everyone!
We are reaching out with humility and hope to ask for your support for our dear friend, Vanessa.
In 2016, Vanessa courageously battled colon cancer and, through immense strength and resilience, she won. For nearly a decade, she lived cancer-free and full of life. Sadly, after 10 years, the cancer has returned. She is now also facing a serious bowel obstruction, likely caused by tumor regrowth, making her condition both urgent and life-threatening.
Vanessa’s medical team has advised that she requires specialised treatment and surgery that are not currently available in our home country of Papua New Guinea. After careful consultation and consideration, her doctors have strongly recommended seeking advanced medical care overseas, where the necessary expertise and facilities exist. We are now pursuing life-saving treatment in India.
This fundraiser is to help cover the critical costs associated with her care, including international travel, surgery, hospitalization, and essential medical expenses. Every contribution—no matter the size—brings Vanessa one step closer to the treatment she urgently needs.
If you’re unable to donate, sharing this appeal can make a powerful difference. Your kindness, prayers, and support mean more than words can express.
Thank you for taking the time to read Vanessa’s story and for standing with her in this fight.
