Just looking for support

Raglan, Waikato

Hi,

Just found out why I am in so much pain all the time. Left hip is absolutely destroyed - no cartilage at all. Bone on bone. Hurts like crazy. Can't earn any money. Sickness benefit doesn't match the prices of basic needs.

Just looking for support. Not just money. Some kind words will definitely help too. It's very lonely when you in pain 24/7. Impossible to start relationships. Cannot hang out coz always in discomfort and pain. It's difficult to walk but moving around on skateboard is all good somehow, which is awesome. I exercise all the time, doing my best to stay positive. If I don't exercise, it gets very hard to move around. If I warm it up, then I don't limp. I try not to show my pain. Doing laps on pump track is helping so much with pain relief. Yeah, strengthening hip muscles really helps.

Just had my spinal surgery done and dusted, finally recovered, and now hip. I stay positive. I hope that eventually I will get a new hip, and will enjoy life to the max!

Use of funds

Looking for the hip replacement surgery money. It can go up to $32K. Everything will go towards the surgery and surgery related expenses.

Everything going towards getting ahead and earning surgery money so I can enjoy life. I really want to succeed. I want to find a girlfriend. I can't be alone for so long. I miss good life so much.
