To gain my life back

Wellington

My Name is Angela I am a mother of 5 children I have been accepted for weight loss surgery but sadly it is not funded as I dont meet the criteria for public hospital so have had to go private, the cost is around $25000 but I only need $20000 as I have saved the rest.

I can hear people saying it's your own fault you got like this but no things happen in life that lead you down that path and contribute I want to be healthy and happy again and be around for my kids and grandaughter .

I was given a date of the 20 Dec for surgery so only have a few weeks to get money together I have exhausted all other avenues and I dont like asking for help but when your life is on the line you have to swallow your pride.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story.

Use of funds

All money raised will go directly towards my surgery even if target is not meet.
