Treatments Cost for my daughter,with severe lung disease 🙏

Hawke's Bay

Hello my name is Mau Tapusoa ,a mother to 4 beautiful kids.Matauaina is the second oldest and this page is made especially for my 12 year old daughter Matauaina. She is currently under the Paediatric Services for frequent review on her ongoing chronic lung disease.When Matauaina was younger she had recurrent bronchiolitis which is a viral infection in her lungs. This has permanently damaged her lungs and has left her with severe lung disease.This significantly impacts on her growth and development and her interactions in the social and educational environment.The management of her severe lung disease requires extra care and attention from me and my husband and she requires extra energy needs for ongoing growth.In the past she was on the feeding machine using the mickey button.As part of her daily care she is required to do physio 2-3 times a day.This is very time consuming and also tiring.My daughter has a Port's for antibiotics treatments every 3 months.The reason for this is im reaching out for help is that we are relocating to Australia to get treatments for our daughter and find her a donor,as we have being in NZ for more then 10 years and still no help for her.Just needing help with moving cost and treatments when we get there.Any donation will be much appreciated ❤️

Moving in January is the purpose for this fundraising 🙏God bless who ever helps us.

Use of funds

Treatments cost In Australia, moving costs/living for Australia when we get there to help her
