We need a break it's been a horrible year. Me and my partner have lost our baby and our cat and now to top it off I have lost my job.

Hi there,
My name is Jamie crafts I am 29 years old and currently living just out of Christchurch. I've had a fairly horrible time growing up but I've always managed to cope. However now I am at my wits end. I've dealt with many friends dying on me ever since my teens and I have coped and been there for support for others letting them know I am always there for them no matter what and now I need help in return. I'm the type of guy that will pick up hitch hikers or help stranded people in need. Now it seems I am stranded with no light ahead of me. This year me and my partner lost our baby after trying for over 4 years. At our 3 month scan in August our baby did not have a heart beat and had passed away which to say the least broke our hearts. My partner has polycystic ovaries which makes it very hard for us to conceive and the stress of it all does not help. We were slowly coming to terms with this with the help of our lovely cat chevy. He was our rock and was there for us the whole time (which he normally wandered) he stayed with us for atleast a couple of weeks. Its as if he knew we were going through hell. We would have struggled without him. In November he was hit by a car which broke our hearts once again as he was our baby and we were coming to terms with just having him around. Now I am fighting to keep my job due to my work trying to fire me for being on ACC. My ACC is due to end and I will most likely be jobless. My job finishes on the 18th of December until the 18th of January for our xmas break however my future there is looking very unlikely. I have been there almost 2 years and this is the last thing I need before xmas. I have been off work due to a tear in my shoulder since the 4th of November. I don't know what I'm going to do anymore, My doctor wants me back at work and my work finishes this week assuming I still have my job by the end of the week. I have my 2nd serious misconduct meeting this week and it does not look good. Being on ACC and not having much of an income and the possibility of not having one over xmas scares me to say the least. A few of my friends have told me to ask for help and make one of these so here I am. I am not normally one to ask for help but I don't have any other options so if anyone can help me out so I can get away with my partner for a week or two that would be great. I want to have my son who lives passed oamaru for a week but I have no way to do this financially. Even if you can donate a dollar every dollar will help. If not maybe just a bit of advice would be good. Thanks in advance anything is greatly appreciated. Merry Xmas to you all
