During the month of October, Wayne was at the Dr's office for treatment or in the hospital every single day. Since the start of this journey, Wayne has had more than 10 blood transfusions and will continue to need more. Wayne is currently searching for a bone marrow match. Once the match is identified, there are anticipated additional costs both for the Tarawhiti family as well as his donor.
