The family of a Hamilton woman who died in hospital in Bali is donating 50-thousand dollars from the money raised to get her home

Abby Hartley was rushed into surgery after falling ill on August 1, and died there earlier this month.
Her insurance company refused to pay her hospital bill because of a pre-existing condition.
People donated more than 230-thousand dollars for her medical care and to fly her home.
In a post on Givealittle, the Hartleys are thanking people, saying they couldn't have got this far without them.
They're splitting the money they don't need between the Mental Health Foundation, Starship Children's Hospital and a Bali school.
