Show your Love and Support for Grant and Diane!
Auckland
Hi I am the daughter of the amazing man Grant Goodley and the beautiful lady Diane! Dad suffered a cardiac arrest on the 25th July 2016 which has changed all of our lives for a long time to come. He has suffered a severe brain injury due the the lack of oxygen for such a long time. At this stage funding may be an issue in getting Dad the care he needs in a brain injury rehab centre. I have decided to try and fundraise for better care which includes a special wheelchair, bed and anything else he may need and to help Mum out with daily expenses like petrol costs, parking, accomodation and bills etc.
I'm in involved to help my amazing parents out!
Moving on from Rehab 21 November 2016
So as most of you know, Dad has been at rehab plus in Pt Chev for the past 7 weeks. He started off with a very rough start with infections and a hospital bug but seems to be fighting strong physically. He has been well cared for by the nurses and the whole team there. He has had physio, OT and SLT most days. Whilst there has been small improvements there has not been enough to continue receiving this level of rehab so he is being moved to a rest home/private hospital on Lincoln Road tomorrow. Thankfully they still have physio etc there so we will continue to work with Dad. He still isnt really aware of who we are most of the time. He can not walk or eat and still does not follow commands most of the time either. He still has his sense of humour and will laugh with us at times, actually a little more as each day passes which of course we all love. So whilst Dad is at Carnarvon and improving by little bits we will be doing up the garage at his place to hopefully get him home for days or weekends in the future. Due to funding Mum is unable to get a hospital bed, hoist or anything else she needs to have Dad at home as they will only pay for him to be at Carnarvon. So all money raised will be going towards doing up the garage, hospital bed a hoist and anything else my awesome Daddyo needs to be surrounded by his family and friends. Much love to you all and thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support, love and donations xxx
