Help for my mother

Bay Of Plenty

My mum Mereanna has a liver transplant coming forward sometime before Christmas. We don't have dates as it's pretty much a call and go situation. My mums only just been put on list 11th November 2024. Because Christmas is only 5-6 weeks away, we won't have the funds to make sure we are around to help as we barely have anything now to save up. We are grateful for any koha given. It's been a hectic journey with what our family has dealt with.

Background- she's a survivor of Breast Cancer. This year has been hard on our family as me (her daughter) was put in a bad situation and ended up in ICU for septic Shock and I lost right side mobility and am still under physio. So for both me and mum we are stuck to the point where we have had to borrow and we can't do that anymore. So any koha received will be much appreciated.

We need funds to make sure mum has family around her while she at hospital for what looks like will be a lengthy stay. Accommodation for mum and only 1 caregiver is covered by the public system. Because me and mum share a caregiver, I have to be there also. There'll be rotations where we'll all caring in the hospital apartments.

Use of funds

Christmas will likely be spent there in hospital so it'll cover what is needed to make sure my mum is spending that day with us. Gas to get there, food and hospital apartment/accommodation costs so more of us can be close by.
