Don't let the nice guy finish last.

Sometimes in life really great people get dealt really tough hands. Shawn Komidar from Port Macquarie is one of those people.

At 29 years of age the osteoarthritis that has been degenerating his joints and bones has finally reached the point where, without treatment and lengthy rehabilitation, he will become permanently disabled. He now cannot maintain his work life because his ankles have become so weak that he cannot walk on them for even a short period of time without experiencing debilitating pain. 

If you know him that would come as a complete shock because you would never have heard him complain, reach out for help, or let you know that the treatment he needs is not listed on the PBS (so it gets no Government subsidy) which makes it heartbreakingly unaffordable to someone who is just starting in life.

The only reason we are writing this now is because his Mum has reached out and let us know about how bleak his longterm outlook is so we can keep an extra close eye on him. 

If you know Shawn and want to help him please donate - anything helps. Any little thing you can afford.

If you don't know Shawn, you'll know someone like him - someone who always offers to help you move, but never asks for it in return. He's someone who would give you his last dollar, literally. Your donation will make a very real, very profound impact on the quality of life of an everyday Australian. One just like you. 

The money raised will go directly towards payment for his treatment and rehabilitation. Every last cent. 

If you do donate, please leave your email address and we will keep you posted on how things are tracking for Shawn. He will be eternally grateful for every gift. Big or small.
