Napier, Hawke's Bay

Hi my name is Mareesa I am a solo full time mother to my 8 year old son I have a bf josh of 9 months he has been my rock throughout my diagnosis & now path back to health, I was recently diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome 2nd july 2023 as a result my life has been turned upside down.. I lost all feeling in my left leg, my right leg is experiencing intense muscle spasms that make it very hard to walk with pain feeling like shooting electric shocks burning when I apply any pressure on my right foot to step when walking anywhere or sit for any length of time, the skin has also become incredibly sensitive too, my central nervous system is compromised & the only way up for me is to get my cns to optimum health again, a long road which is hard as stress makes my condition worse which I will admit it has been super hard to stay positive with all the changes I have lost my independence I was a dental assistant I was made redundant I lost my house so kindly my bf of 9 months took my son and I in, (we wernt ready at all for the move in stage) but josh being josh said no we will make it work! I did need the help so moved in, since I have struggled for any financial assistance everyone says josh can pay .. but after only 9 months it's not RIGHT in my head for him to be footing all cost for my son and I my extra Bill's ect I feel bad & am afraid for my relationship the stress it is puting us under may soon take a tole so

im asking for help to pay Bill's and to be a mum again.

Use of funds

My main goal is survival to be able to pay my own Bill's again to be a mum again and be able to do things for my son to be able to afford my own medical scripts rent food child care costs every day living necessities/bill repayments every day necessities
