Holly & her battle against Rheumatoid & Psoriatic Arthritis

Donation protected
Hi my name is Kristina and
I have created this page on behalf of Holly who suffers Rheumatoid & Psoriatic Arthritis in every single joint in her body. Holly would never ask for help from others so I took the initiative to do it for her. With that here is her story.

Holly is a young single mother of two beautiful children, who has been battling Rheumatoid & Psoriatic Arthritis for several years. As a mother and a Disability Support worker Holly has always put everyone else first.
However, unfortunately this has made everyday tasks a struggle, from playing with her children to household chores, her condition affects every aspect of her life. Despite this she continues to support her family and clients, though it has significantly impacted her ability to work. With very minimal shifts she can only work with select clients that only require minimal support leaving her with limited income struggling to make ends meet.

Holly has attended numerous doctor visits crying and begging for help to no avail.
She is currently awaiting a full hip replacement and has been waiting for a long 5 years as she's been told by doctors that she's "too young" for this surgery. This has left Holly feeling frustrated and helpless leaving her in excruciating pain, severe flare ups and joint damage in every single joint in her body. Holly is now seeking alternative treatments and therapies to help manage her condition however financially unable.

Lastly, Holly dreams of creating cherished memories with her kids for a family holiday they have never been on due to the financial burden which has made this dream seem impossible.

Our goal is to raise $15,000 to cover the costs of:

- Therapy sessions (e.g.,Hydrotherapy, massages, chiropractors, acupuncture, sauna.
- Household expenses, ongoing cleaner.
- Living expenses
- Accommodation for a holiday with the kids
- Activities with children

Any donation big or small will help Holly find relief from her suffering and get control over her life. Your support will help Holly:

- Receive treatment and therapy sessions without financial stress
- Focus on her recovery without huge financial burden
- Create lifelong memories with her children
- Enjoy a much needed break from the daily struggles
- Experience a sense of freedom
- Continue her role as a disability support worker, helping others in need

If you have made it this far to read, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you. If you’re able to help your donation will make a huge difference in Holly's life and give her the opportunity to live a better life and create unforgettable memories with her children.
Again, Thankyou!
