PLEASE HELP ME RAISE $100,000+
I am the son of one of the most, caring, loving, and kind hearted mothers that I could ever imagine to have been gifted with, I am also the brother of one of the most beautiful, most outrageously funny and beautiful sisters that I could have ever asked to be blessed with and theres nothing that I would not do to see there lifes improved.
She is constantly smiling and helps me see the beauty in this world, It's only when she starts to cry and mum rushes over to hug her hiding her own tears do you come back to reality and realise how painful things really are.
Emma was not born with Cerebral Palsy but due to an accident just after birth she was left with this condition, which also resulted in her developing Epilepsy.
It's so bad sometimes that it pulls every muscle in her body to an agonising limit and can last for up to 30 minutes, all mum can do is hold her and pray that she will be ok, sometimes it results in hospitalisation if the medication does not work.
Emma can't walk, go to the toilet herself, feed herself properly or sleep without being turned through the night.
Emma needs 24 hour care 7days a week and all this is done by our Mum.
My mother Tania is 66 years of age and has been caring for Emma for the last 36 years with no hesitation to give her all in every way that she possibly can…giving is all that Mum knows.
She has given up her whole life with only the thought that she can give more, but all this comes at a cost, not just in money but in her health.
MUM has been in and out of hospitals with back, neck and leg issues, She also suffered light depression after the passing of her own mother, and a fire which took all she owned and so many memories.
$60 plus per hour is what a full time stay in carer can get paid if you work for your self or a company, but since Emma is Tania's daughter she only gets paid $2.14 per hour $360 per week for 168 hours of full time care, the government really knows how to take care of the people that save the tax payers and all of us hundreds of millions a year.
As you can all imagine there is very little to no money left to survive on after rent, food, power, car, medication. The reason I ask for your help is very clear, if we do nothing then nothing will change.
Together you and I can…… Provide them with a warm and safe home that is wheelchair friendly with solar power on some land with veggie gardens and fruit trees so that they can be mostly self sufficient.
Provide a car that Emma can be pushed into whilst still in her wheelchair, a car that will not break down and can be used to drive long distances.
Provide a new wheelchair for Emma that is comfortable with a motor.
Provide equipment for Emma and Tania for muscular relief. Provide them with finical relief and freedom.
These are just a few of the necessities which are needed and a must to truly help these beautiful girls.
I hate to say this but, it's so true that the money they don't have, is the cause of most of, if not all of their problems.
There is so much Emma and Tania need, I can't do this by my self, I'm asking you all for your much needed HELP…it's only TOGETHER that we can make a DIFFERENCE, a DIFFERENCE in all of our lives.
As the weeks months go by I will fill you all in with pictures and short movies to show you all how things are going and how much progress is being made thanks to all of your much needed help.
Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts,
kind regards simon white.
