Help me get an electric wheelchair
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Nay and for the last 14 months I have been in hospital due to my chronic illness.
Before Christmas 2023 I could dance in high heels, then on boxing day I was admitted to hospital and within a week completely lost my ability to stand or walk. I became homeless due to now being a wheelchair user and not able to go home.
I'm lucky that I now have somewhere to live and am better at managing my symptoms and am getting discharged on the 5th. However, after 14 months of being in hospital I didn't know how inaccessible the world is for wheelchair users. I can't push myself on the roads outside my house because it's too bumpy and generally I can only push myself for 2-3 minutes because of pain and fatigue.
I really want to make the most of my life getting out of hospital, living my life to the full despite being chronically ill, but to do that and be independent, I need an electric wheelchair.
I would be so grateful if anyone could help me out. This would change my life for the better in so many ways.
