To help my dream, to own and operate my own I.T repair business from home. To finally stop waddling around the house with nothing to do! :d

Tokoroa, Waikato

Hello everybody :)

Here's my story of how i ended up an epileptic with a swollen and damaged brain, the memory of a goldfish lol! All because of a virus that most humans have but our immune systems keep you safe.

In April 1 2019 of ALL days... My partner was in the car with me. She said i had been acting odd and insisted i go to the hospital, saying " i should drive " but i refused. So driving along, once finally gettin.g there after being confused on its location.

Then being admitted and checked in to a nice spacious room on a comfy as bed.. JK.. I started becoming confused and behaving unusually. My vitals were checked over. They assumed i was on high on drugs, so running all sorts of tests ect and I was left for a while with my partner, and then having a drug and alcohol councilor come in, as i was extremely thin also, i geuss the thought i was a class A drug user. Not long before sorting my discharge papers I went into a full on convulsive seizure. I rolled off the bed and hit the floor face first. blood everywhere. They come running and placed me into a coma to stop the seizure and stitch up my eyebrow. It was knarly. Recovery was long, I had scans, mri's, eeg's, and was later diagnosed with *HSV1*

Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) which is a group of conditions where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy brain cells, leading to inflammation. Symptoms can vary widely and may include epilepsy, memory loss, seizures, psychosis, and behavioral changes.. life is different.

Use of funds

I'll be spending this money on tools & equipment for specialist repair, having money aside to purchase parts for repairs. I'd like to potentially have products in stock for PC upgrades & repairs &

i'd LOVE to provide the community with affordable pricing.

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
