She is worried because she has to feed them and unsure what to do. So am making Lasagne and fish pie that she can pop in her oven and claim as her own. Hope I get it right and it will impress.

Ivelina Velkova Dear Angel Zoe (And family)! I have been following your story (or should I say picture-story) through Mistral photography! This beauty of yours will FOREVER live on! You are so inspirational and have truly touched many! For my act of kindness – well I will be opening my own foundation offering complimentary photography terminally ill children and their families. I have been trying to do this for some time through the many charities in Auckland (unfortunately have been turned down every time!), so also after seeing this I thought WHY NOT? I can tell these images of you will forever remain with your family! I too have been given a gift of photography and would love nothing more than to help these families capture precious moments! Thank you for your inspiration! I am sure you are greatly missed by everyone who has come across your gorgeous smile! Rest in peace gorgeous girl! xx

Kate says: I thought about Zoe a lot while we were away. Every time we flew over Palm Oil Kernel plantations I thought how sad it was that the jungle was being destroyed and the devastating impact it has on wildlife. In some ways humans are like cancer to the orangutans. I started to think about Zoe, and how through her short but special life she taught so many of us so much. I will never be able to find a cure for cancer, but I can do my bit to stop the “cancer” that is destroying orangutans. So, our family are sponsoring little intinban. He’s 3, and I hope that he will make it through to have a family of his own, and I hope, that through raising our childrens awareness we can do our part to change the future through trying very hard not to consume palm oil.

We tied the acts of kindness to raffia to go on the balloons

We blew up a LOT of balloons

There was a special bunch dedicated to friends’ angel children

We took them down to the beach

Zoe’s friends wrote messages on some of them

 

They all tangled in the wind so we sent them to heaven together (a reminder we are a part of each other)

 

And as we watched them go, we thought of the special angel who inspired this project

Happy Birthday Angel Zoe
