Mum with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome

Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a rare and very painful condition requiring a multidisciplinary treatment pathway.

On the pain scale, CRPS registers higher than child birth.

Kaiya is a 30 year old mother and ex hair dresser who developed CRPS after a botched surgery on her perineum.

For the last 3 years she has had debilitating pain in her spine and left leg.

ACC is not covering Kaiya's treatment costs and Kaiya would love to gain some of her independence back which is why she is asking for some help.

Kaiya is wheelchair bound for at least part of the day, everyday, and requires modifications to her home to accommodate this.

She also love some help raising money for an electric wheelchair so she can spend more time outside with her 7 year old daughter, to walk her dog, or go shopping for herself.

Kaiya also needs help with some of her medical bills including acupuncture, botox on her bladder and travel costs.
