Help a struggling single mum

Nationwide

Hi I’m SJ my whanau has had a lifetime of struggles, my youngest son has had ongoing medical issues since he was born and struggles daily with a chronic knee disease that affect his walking and pain, my middle son has spent his life being an active rugby player and after a tragic accident and major surgery it altered the course of his life forever and is now unable to work.

I have had my own fair share of medical issues including a chronic lung condition lung surgery , two days ago I tripped over my fur baby

And I’ve broke my ribs leaving me bedridden and in a huge amount of pain unable to do my normal household and work duties.

I am someone whom would show up for anyone anytime, my huge heart and empathy for others is noble and a beautiful characteristic to have. I will always give to others but struggle immensely to ask for help. But here I am humbling myself and asking for support. To be able to pay my normal weekly amenities and put food on the table for my children while I am unable to support them at this stage as I work for myself and I am not entitled to any assistance. I have very limited support and struggle doing it alone. Thank you in advance to everyone

Use of funds

Groceries, household bills, petrol for medical appointments and medications.Getting my son to school while I can’t drive.
