Would you like to help Joan get to India for life-changing surgery?

Hi there, that's a good question, Tim. Having consulted with a surgeon in Auckland, mum was told that surgery would cost around $85,000 and he could only give a 50% chance of success. Coupled with that, the surgeon has said that her recovery would take around 6 months and for much of that time she could be bedridden. ACC has refused to cover it. The surgeon in Mumbai has given her a much more hopeful prognosis, and others who have had this surgery have been on their feet within 48 hours.

Thanks again for your interest.

Kind regards
