Hi everyone :)
For those that don't know me, I'm Becca (the Pom!) who used to live with Neleke and like you, I love her to bits, as not only is she a ridiculously amazing person, but she is always there for me and all of her many friends!!
Neleke was there for Melsy every step of the way and put her whole life on hold to help make her friends last year/months/days while she was here with us exactly what she wanted and needed. Now Neleke is a woman on a misssion again, working ridiculous hours to save money and fulfill Mels last wishes to have her ash's scattered by Connor (the love of her life) at Burning Man in the USA.
This is where we can all step in and help to PAY IT FORWARD TO NELEKE!!!!!
I have been lucky enough to be a part of one of the many amazing things that Neleke did for Mel - Christmas day 2011 I gave Melsy a credit card (as Neleke was away) with $2000 dollars on it that Neleke had organised and raised in less than a week.
Melsy was struggling with finances and Neleke wanted to take that burden from her, so she raised some funds to help elivate the stress and Mel was crying as she was so touched by Neleke and everyone else........now I wanna make Neleke cry!!!
With happy tears :)
A few of the amazing things Neleke did for Mel:
* 2012 Neleke paid for a holiday for Melsy and she took her to Bali for a much deserved holiday and motorbike adventure after 12 months of chemo
* 2013 Mels cancer metastisised to her spine and lungs and she went and stayed with Neleke for 6 months.
* 2014 Neleke and Mels other amazing friends had a fund raiser and sent her to the States for alternative treatment in June.
* 2014 Mel moved in with Neleke who was then became Mels primary palliative carer.
* Neleke organised a Flashmob at the sports grandstand of 500 people to sing Mel a Happy Birthday and just to put a smil;e on her beautiful face.
* While living with Neleke, Mel sadly took her last breath at home, which is EXACTLY where she wanted to be with Neleke holding her hand.
And Now Nels needs our help :)
As Im sure you know, Neleke will NEVER ask for help, but now is the time for her to be shown how much she really means to me and to everyone who knows her and for us to all band together and send her to the States with Melsy.
In her Will, Melsy asked to be taken to the USA and to be with Connor, who will take her to Burning Man and I know Neleke wants to physically take this last journey with Mel and not send her alone!
We all know what a MASSIVE journey this has been for everyone, but in particular Neleke.
Nothing will ever come close to what Neleke did for Mel but Neleke has inspired me and I want to help and show her how freakin' awesome she is, how much she is loved by us all but more than anything I want to take some of her burdens away so that she can say her final farewell to Melsy and leave her ashes where she wants to be.
THANKING YOU ALL SO MUCH AND IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR DONATIONS :)
Please tell EVERYONE you know about this campaign, so we can all start raising money ASAP and get both the girls on a plane....
Thanks guys and lots of love, Becca x x x x
