Was wanting to do a sober month and then wanted to go that little bit further to help someone in need.

Auckland

I was wanting to do a sober month to help someone in need and thought I might aswell do something I haven't done before, so I'm also going to do a obstacle/mud run! I have set up a fundraising page to raise funds for someone whos story hit me when reading it, her name is Penny, she is a mother of 2 and was affected by meningococcal septicemia.

This is very serious and the strong fighter pulled thru wih a 2% chance of survival but lost her legs from the knee down and part of her hand, being a mother of 2 which in my opinion is hard enough on its own for this woman its obviously very tough!

ACC wont cover her but I've seen them happily cover other people who clearly take the p#ss outta the system! This makes me rather annoyed!

Now I mentioned this Penny was a fighter and she has had to learn to walk again and done so in amazing time! Only problem is that the extremely basic legs she has been provided with dont fit nor does the ankle move as you can imagine how hard that would be! She needs proper legs!

So were going to help her move towards getting a procedure of getting implants attached to her bone so the new prosthetic legs can attach properly to the implant.

Please do something to help!!!

Weither it's donating, re-posting or shraing this for awareness or even coming and joing me on the run!!!!
