Get Halle to Australia to see her mum in ICU
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Halle and I’m emergency fundraising flights to Melbourne to see my mother in the ICU in my home town of Bendigo. My mum has had a diabetic episode (we didn’t know she was diabetic) where she became threateningly dehydrated, almost driven into a diabetic coma and is now hospitalised in intensive care. My mum also had a 15 inch diameter mass removed from her abdomen last year, that had fused with vital organs, meaning she had one of her kidneys and part of her intestine removed. She now uses a stoma bag and only has one kidney to deal with cleaning her blood that has been affected by this and the doctors are trying to get it back to functioning. I would like to be with my mum ICU to help communicate with her doctors, as I did through the lengthy preparation and recovery from her last procedure, advocate for her as she is a Black immigrant woman that is vulnerable in these situations, and hopefully if she recovers and is released home some time soon, provide personal care for her and make sure she is recovering well and changing her stoma bag. I know it’s a very long shot but I’m trying to raise ~$2000 AUD for return flights to Melbourne so I can be with my mother through this.
