Myself and my two children were in a serious car accident 15th October 4pm, we were not at fault.

Northland

On the 15th oct 4pm a careless driver pulled in front of my car causing a serious accident. I suffered a broken humorus and collapsed bowel I under went two major sugerys and could not be with my children, kyle aged 14 suffered two broken femas a head injury had two blood transfusions and under went a 8hr long surgery where he had to be resucitated because he nearly passed away he spent a night on life surport, he spent his 15th birthday in hospital on the 18th oct. Isabella aged 8 suffered two broken femas was placed into a drug induced coma for 24hrs and under went a 8hr long surgery to repair her legs. I was in hospital for 3weeks kyle 7weeks Isabella 6 weeks. we are all home now but the shock of it all isn't over, I spend my days running around after my crippled children and physhio is regular so that I may learn to use my arm again and the two children have to learn to walk again. I lost my job due to this and now have to move to a more suitable home as ours has to many stairs for the kids to climb and watchimg them try to to this breaks my heart. I only just made it threw Christmas with barely any finaces. We are really struggling to come back from this all its been so traumatizing. my 17 year old son was not in the accident but has suffered greatly also due to all of this he nearly lost his whole family. Before the accident my children were normal healthy happy children going to school living normal lives, now they have missed school struggle to walk and to their basic daily routine ie; dressing showering toleiting. I had a wonderful job which i enjoyed i was living a pretty active live with my children, now i have trouble even opening a jar of jam and barely leave the house, when i drive i am constantly anxious. We have bills pouring in, Work and Income wont help ACC wont either, we were mended up sent on our way and now have to pick up what is left of what use to be a wonderful life. Please help us get back on our feet so life can be wonderful again and less tramatic.
