Dear friends and family.

This is a humble plea to all for urgent assistance.

We all know Arthur Piercy, and for those of you who do not know, here is his story.

Arthur Piercy’s remarkable fiancé, life partner (wife), Gerda, was recently diagnosed with a brain tumour. She has recently had medical intervention and has been recovering well thus far.

Gerda has had numerous health problems over the past few years; and despite this, she has continued to be Arthur’s primary caregiver, home executive all while maintaining a full-time job over the past year.

Due to the surgery, she has not been able to fulfil all the support mentioned above and she continues to need medical support and assistance herself. Arthur can and and does assist where possible but understandably he cannot do all that is required. Assistance still continues to be desperately needed.

Arthur and Gerda will still need financial support for the next few months to employ someone who will be able to take over the duties of a caregiver, nurse, housekeeper, chef etc. They are also concerned that there will be unexpected future medical costs for the next 4 months whilst Gerda recovers.

There have also been expenses that have accumulated over the past few months whilst Arthur himself was in and out of hospital, which urgently needs to be covered and brought up to date.

A heartfelt thank you once again for supporting these two beautiful people.

If there is any way that you may be able to assist or continue assisting, no matter how small, please get in touch or use the donation link.

It will sincerely be appreciated!
