A mumma desperately needing help!!

$4 of $3,000 goal
Given by 1 generous donor in 10 days

spreading awareness about the injury I received which is called osteitis pubis. I have 2 years left till im wheelchair bound please help.

In 2023 I went in for a routine surgery to get rid of pain I was having. But unfortunately it didn't last long. I spent 8 months in and out of hospitals getting scans, x-rays, MRI

I thought I was loosing my mind and no one believed the extreme pain I was having.

Then I finally got a diagnosis that changed my life instantly and forever.

The hospital turned around and said it was a common injury from the surgery.

Turned out its a RARE injury called osteitis pubis. Only happens in 2% of people. I was now robbed of my life while also a solo parent of 4.

I had to end up going private as I couldn't walk putting me in 10s of thousands of dollars in debt. I ended up loosing my job and my children ended up with the task of helping me everyday. I couldn't get out of bed alone I couldn't do simple things cook clean shower. Id have to get room to room on my bottom . I couldn't drive, shop or walk 100ft to the pharmacy from my house.

The injury has caused my bones in my pelvis, hips legs to start giving out its basically arthritis in my pelvic reason and the feeling well imagine being stabbed by thousands of knives all at once. Every time you had to move just a step.

Im now in a home which is needing modifications done to it so I can get around im about 2 years away from being in a wheelchair till I die.

The ones who suffered the most from this medical misconduct was my KIDS.

And now im asking for your help so my kids can have a life they deserve.

The costs of installation of equipment.

Thank you

This amount will cover the costs of getting my house modified for my personal safety   12 April 2026

The reason behind the home modifications is because I actually had a fall last year down a small step at my front door. my leg gave way due to not being able to lift my leg due to the pain. I had a fall i ended up in smashing my head into the concrete path knocked myself out and had a seizure. Im still recovering from the serious concussion I ended up with. Thats how my life is and its going to geg worse.
