Kia ora Elizabeth . I am so sorry to hear of your loss . I actually ran into Michael in the Motutpau ward at Auckland Hospital . I work as a Support worker for Blood Cancer NZ . I am not sure if you remember me but we all knew eachother many years ago . I chatted with Michael he spoke so fondly of you and Nicholas and Sylvia . He told me of Sylvia reading to him when he was unwell , He described his illness and all you had been through as a whanau . It is tough . I also remeber Micahel attending the Physio groups in Motutpau and having some interesting discussions about Healthcare finding etc . I am so sorry for your loss . Aroha to you all Rachel Donegan
