My daughter needs surgery overseas

Tara from Stonefields

Hi

My daughter Mia and I have lived in Stonefields for just over 6 years and we love it here. It's such a friendly community and handy to everything.

Unfortunately my daughter isn't well - she has ehlers danlos syndrome which has caused 4 compressions in her abdomen - meaning she can't eat food, has lost over 8kgs, has stomach & back pain, headaches and vomiting and isn't in school.

Her vascular surgeon has referred us to a team of surgeons in Germany who specialise in vascular compressions (they only affect 0.3% of the population so we don't have anyone doing the surgeries here in NZ).

We have to raise $140,000, so I'd really appreciate if you'd share the link below to Mia's Give a Little Page on your social media pages.

Thanks
Tara x

Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
