Young couple need help. Husband seriously ill , wife main caregiver and 2 young children.

Nationwide

If you can understand this.

In July Jace was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia this was 2012. Fast forward to December of same year Jace had a stem cell transplant.

He is in remission for the leukaemia but has developed serious post transplant issues. He has what is called graft vs host disease meaning that the transplanted cells and Jace's body hate each other. His post transplant meds for this condition turned toxic to the point where he passed out.

The result of all this is as follows.

Jace now has a shadow on his frontal lobe of his brain due to the medication.

This means he has nearly no ability to see. Light to him is extremely plainly.

Finally due to long term steroid use, to reduce symptoms of GVHD he now also has bone density problems.

Thank you family seriously in debt as wife has had to give up job to look after Jace.

Power bill at present is $3500.

Thank you for reading.
