Please Help Amy Get To Her Dying Father

Auckland

Hello, I'm reaching out for help in travelling from NZ to Australia to hold my dad's hand in his last days.

About a week and a half ago my cousin tried to contact my father with no luck. She was worried so called my brother. He then arranged Police and Ambulance to meet him at my father's apartment. They broke in and found him on the bathroom floor tiles.

He had been there for approx 30 hours !!!

His parkinsons had made him fall, being on the tiles so long meant his kidneys no longer work, he has picked up 2 infections and muscles dont work either.

He doesnt have much time left and I really need to get to him.

I have applied for a loan twice , with no success. Asked some family but they can't at the moment.

Times are tough so any help at all would.be greatly appreciated but please know its not expected.

Thank you.

Amy

He is struggling BUT his kidneys are functioning (just) , several blood transfusions ' including another one today. He gets assistance to stand and today sat in a chair for the 1st time since the fall ! He was so proud of himself and I was damn proud too.
