Help Catherine

On behalf of Catherine and the family I'd like to say thank you! Donations are now sitting at $3210. You have all been spectacularly generous and we are very grateful, especially because Catherine has now been turned down for funded home help, both by the DHB and MoH, several times. This is because she has a condition she is on medication for - if she was immobile because of an injury, she would qualify. She has recently started a new drug that we hope will begin to make a difference in a few months. At the moment, an au pair is staying at Catherine's place and helping out. When she goes home in a couple of weeks, the home help you have helped to fund will start to kick in. If we reach our goal of $5000 in six months, it will fund two hours of much-needed help per weekday for that period. So please spread the word :) Thanks so much, Esther (Catherine's sister)
