Road to recovery, this much loved mother.... the button that holds this family together needs our help.

Bay of Plenty

My beautiful friends Mother was in a horrible car accident......

My friends mother is the button that holds this family together. She's all they have. They need our support on her road to recovery.

She was involved in a head on accident in the Coromandal.

As a result,

She has a fracture in her neck along with damage to the main chord, laceration to the liver and large hematoma by her heart.

This amazing women is also a full time career for my friends sister who is now being looked after by my friend.

My friend has 3 wonderful children of her own and now has taken her sister in during this difficult time, she suffers from her own medical condition and requires every day care, they make the long journey every day into the hospital to be there with their mum to support her and keep her strong.

This family could have lost their mother who means everything to them, but she's still here fighting but they need our help.

Donate a few dollars to help this amazing family. A few dollars can help so much. We just never know when we may need someone to help!

Mel and I are friends and I'm to far away to offer help..... so I'd like to help the family in means of other support

Use of funds

The fund raised for this family will be used for every day expenses and assist with medical bills....

Latest update

Day 10 back to where we started.  13 June 2019

Update 12/6/19 day 10.

Just when we all thought progress was made

Update:

Mel's mum has been complaining the whole time of a painful sore leg and side. Finally a doctor listened today and ordered an X-ray and scan.

As a result of this unfortunately a couple of her injuries had gone undiagnosed so today we were told that her sternum is broken in two places and also one of her legs are broken. She now has a non-weight bearing cast on her leg and is back to being immobile. I have no idea what this means for us now and basically back at square one.

Love and hope.💖
