We need to fund the purchase of a portable oxygen machine for my mom to help her breathe

Auckland

Hello everyone.

My mother is still fairly young at 74. However she isn't healthy at all. She was diagnosed with myeloma 15 years ago and has beaten that. She now has COPD - she has never smoked a cigarette in her entire life so it came as a shock.

She is slowly being robbed of being able to enjoy small things in life like walking outside - even if just to the gate and back several times. She desperately needs a portable oxygen machine.

She is on a pension and doesn't have a medical aid unfortunately and her family aren't in a position to help her so we are appealing to any generous and amazing people to help us. Maybe you've had a loved one with COPD and it's close to your heart?

It's a terrible disease and the inability to breathe without an oxygen source is becoming a burden on her and those who love her.

Please, please help her....she wants the last years of her life to be as enjoyable as possible and that means the little and simple things like taking walks, and going to do some grocery shopping :-)

Thank you everybody.

God bless.
