Hi, my name is Jane I'm raising funds for my beautiful daughter Heidi.
Heidi has autism, anxiety disorder, POTS, Tachycardia and cyclical vomiting syndrome. Also a history of eating disorder.
Her quality of life has become very poor and she goes through so much on a daily basis.
She is struggling to keep her medication down due to the vomiting and is now finding it hard to get up and down the stairs. Her resting heart rate is 120 bpm and this rises to 200 bpm on walking up the stairs. She is on propanalol but due to the frequent vomiting she is not able to keep it down.
She is on several mental health medications, lamotrogine, chlorpromazine, risperidone and due to the vomiting these are not taking effect either at the moment causing her depression, psychosis elements and anxiety to be unbearable. She self harms and is suicidal and I have to be fully monitoring her at all times.
I therefore would like to apply for any help in making a downstairs bedroom for Heidi to increase her quality of life, to provide her safety in getting to her own room and aid in her mobility around the home.
Heidi is about to turn 21 years of age she has been unable to attend college due to spending her comprehensive school years in ty Bryn Camhs mental health hospital, she cannot leave the house anymore due to her symptoms. She even finds walking out into the garden a trial. She has regular psychiatric appointments, is working with the eating disorder team and has to attend hospital for iv frequently for fluids. But there is very little support they can provide and it is just me on my own with Heidi and her younger siblings.
Any support to make Heidi's life a little bit better for her at the moment would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Jane
