Please help us with buying a car to take my husband to all his apps and chemotherapy he has been diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma.

Karori, Wellington

Hi,

My name is Moana and my husband cam who is only 35 has been diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma which is a type of blood cancer- it is treatable with chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

I am asking for help because we do not have a car and we really need one so I can take him to all his appointments as he has alot of appointments at least 3-4 a week at various places mostly the hospital plus he will start chemotherapy before Xmas so very soon!

I am just looking at buying a cheap but decent car so not anything expensive- we would be forever grateful for all the help and this would make it so much easier and less stressful for us especially right before Xmas!

We also have 3 children this would make them happy as they are very upset and want their dad to get better and be able to easily go to all his apps and then get treatment.

I do work part time but I have to give up my job to take care of him and my last day is today so I am unable to save and buy a car plus I don't work enough hours to be able to save for one as I only work 12.5 hours a week cleaning which is not much over minimum wage and with the cost of living and we have 3 children we are barely surviving and since I won't be able to work till he is treated hopefully In the 6 months we are definitely going to struggle but at least having a car would be a big help for us we think it would.

Please help us we would be forever grateful.

Nga mihi,

The Gallaghers.
