A Life for Ziggy the Cabbie

On the 11th of March, Ziya suffered a sudden cardiac arrest. This bright young man who is my father, was one of the best cab drivers in London, and one of the most compassionate and caring men I've seen in my life. Currently, he is fighting a disorder of consciousness due to the brain injury inflicted on him by lack of oxygen due to his cardiac arrest. He has been gifted to still be with us and we appreciate every day he has with myself and my mum. We are a small family, where it's just me, my mum and dad, and my mum has a panic disorder and suffers severe anxiety and has been since she was 17, so this is extremely hard on her, and very heartbreaking for me as I'm an only child and my father is my rock.

10 months on and he is at home. Conscious but severely cognitively impaired. I am looking to buy a Hyperbaric oxygen chamber to be installed in our home for my dad to use on a daily basis. The oxygen will help improve his neurological condition and hopefully give him a better quality of life. The cost of the chamber is £24,000, however I can get a used version with a warranty in mint condition for £10,000, so this is definitely something more achievable. This will be including oxygen concentrators. Any contributions would be greatly appreciated :).


Thank you all for your generosity :)!
