The following day she had deteriorated to the point that she had developed expressive disphasia and a dangerously high temperature an ambulance was called tests were done ,the next day she was flown to Dunedin hospital for an emergency 11 hour heart operation to attempt to save her life.she had suffered a bacterial endocarditis infection in the part of her heart that was operated on two years previously.she is fighting so hard to stay with us,but she is still in an induced coma with multiple internal organ complications.we want to be there for mum when she wakes up,to support and inspire her recovery.i have two younger sisters riley ,14 carly ,16 and a younger brother max,6,all of my siblings still live at home with her.while this is all happening they are in my care including my 3 kids , We have extremely limited financial resources, stressed about how we will be able to get to and from Dunedin ,accomdation with paying mums Bill's, food etc .if you are able to help us be with our mum and her road to recovery please give generously and send all your positive thoughts thankyou
