Ferns type 1 diabetes journey
Nelson / Tasman
Hi all, as a lot of you already know one of my twins Fern was rushed to ICU last week in a coma where we learnt of her type 1 diabetes diagnosis. We've encountered a struggle in the finances due to the nature of new costs that just can't be covered by winz or any other organisations, believe me we've tried. Ongoing we will have much higher food costs to accommodate Ferns new diet, fuel costs for medical appointments and emergencies which will potentially be a thing while we get her sorted, we also need to purchase her a good quality cell phone to run in conjunction with her insulin pump and glucose monitor.
We have applied but the pump may not be funded, it is looking promising tho due to the severity of her particular situation and age. As we progress in time I'll learn more but yeah Fern's literally eaten our savings and as much as it is difficult to do this we are in dire need of some assistance. I will be selling our caravan once I can arrange grooming so that's our only alternative for the future. In the meantime if anyone can help with anything Fern and I would be grateful 💝❤️🩹
I am Fern's mother
Food, fuel, insulin lancets, cellphone for ease of testing and recording results which upload straight to the hospital, some treats for the poor girl and her twin sister Willow and other related costs
