From Greg Foster (Aussie Greg) Any help you can give is very much appreciated. It's just been devastating since the car accident and now Mum-who is the kindest-happiest, caring soul and who has just suffered so much this past 4 years and especially the 26 days she just spent in hospital It breaks my heart to know she was fine before all this.
This photo of Mum (taken on My nephews Wedding day-I've never shown a picture of Mum online before) ) was taken only 18 months before the horrific car accident we both had in 2020. Showing how strong and healthy Mum was at 87), compared to how frail and incapacitated she is now due to her having 5 fractures in her Pelvis and 4 fractured ribs and other injuries and spent 52 days is hospital and rehab from that car accident and endured every day just sitting which caused many other injuries, accumulating even more in that 26 day stay in June 2004 and which destroyed both our lives forever.
I am not sure about this, but I was asked by Catherine Maguire (thank you Catherine from the bottom of my HEART) to think about it to help us to help pay for this ongoing cost of Mum-hiring this hospital bed setup as she is now confined to the bed and lounge room.
There is also the cost for extended care-which we already have 3 days a week due to Mum now having to be changed daily and moved (which needs two people).
There is also the cost for the hospital bed which is $880 per month. I have been looking to buy one online but they are expensive and have to have the pressure mattress and machine to run it. I've looked at second hand one's too. The setup also has a pressure mattress and the 4 extra days per week-2 hours per day minimum that is around $1900 per month minimum.
There are s many other people that are suffering cancer and other debilitating Illnesses I know of right now also asking for help here and it is hard for me to ask for this help, although we desperately do need it.
I do hope many of the people I have met and known the past 14 years through FB and Music could in any small way help.
I have contacted a few other organisations about help. Government and private and those take a few months as they need to come to the house and do their own assessment send reports and it takes time. I have two ringing me today about such appointments.
To show you what type of cost I need to cover for Mum, I just sent the company that helps us the past 4 years $3000 just for the next two and a half months (bed hire and 4 extra days care per week) and even that won't cover everything, hence why I am also selling my collection of Guitars.
These are advertised on my FB site and also being sold to try and raise money for the coming year of Mums care.
Thank you all who reads this and contribute to helping Mum.
Beautiful Mum.
Every cent is for Mum's ongoing needs.
THANK YOU from the bottom of my Breaking HEART. MUM doesn't know of this (but she will eventually) but she would be very Humble in her APPRECIATION.
I Know she will cry, knowing she means something to people- or also touched your HEARTS, those who don't even know her but have followed our story I have written about on my FB Site for the past 4 years.
Mum has been so strong in her terrible Ordeal of hundreds of days spent going to doctors and in hospital and just..... I wish I was as strong as she is..
THANK you all so much. It means the world to US. GOD bless you All.
