Are you able to help Fleur Creedmore with her rehabilitation - crucial visits from family

On 25th October Fleur Creedmore had a car accident in the Lewis Pass on a bad corner that has since seen another accident. No one else was involved. Fleur's injuries resulted in a Traumatic Brain Injury requiring ICU care for 12 days then the Neurological ward ever since awaiting transfer to rehabilitation centre. She's expected to make a good recovery over time - helped by family involvement.

Fleur has surprised everyone. In a coma for 4 days with a grim prognosis, she then woke up and made a hard-fought 'rapid recovery' ever since. Walking and talking, but with some post traumatic amnesia, memory issues and the usual brain injury affects like fatigue. Intensive rehabilitation (fully funded) is needed for her recovery. Fleur doesn't drink or smoke, is very fit and strong, a great baseline for rehabilitation.

Fleur's family have been by her side from day one with some visiting where work and school permits.

Fleur's daughter Trinity left her job back in Australia to come spend time with her, her two younger daughters Natalie and Evie and their dad Brad have made regular trips from Nelson to the hospital and later the rehabilitation centre, as will sister Jessie and Mum Raewyn.

The rehabilitation centre Fleur is getting transferred to is in Auckland. That's a long way from home. Accommodation and travel costs will make it difficult to spend this crucially important time with Fleur and also impact on household costs for Fleur's immediate family.
