Help make Kai’s life a little easier
Donation protected
This is my last resort at trying to raise the funds to purchase a hydrotherapy spa for my son Kai.
Kai has debilitating Autism, as well as OCD and severe Anxiety. He is 18, but his emotional and mental age is that of a child. Kai spends everyday anxious and has become imprisoned in his own rules and rituals.
He has had many different types of therapy and medication over the years, but none have worked.
My aim in life is for my son to be as happy as he can be. This isn’t easy. We have not left the house in 2 years due to his dangerous anxiety triggered outbursts.
The one thing that has always calmed him and made him smile, is being in water. This hasn’t been possible in the last couple of years as we are unable to visit a leisure centre or pool safely. He also gets very distressed by the noise that often accompanies a public swimming pool or spa.
In order to give him some form of joy in his life, I want to be able to get him a swim spa. The impact this would have in his life is huge!
He is over 6ft tall and doesn’t fit in the bath or a portable inflatable spa.
I am saving as much as I possibly can, but as his carer, I have to rely on a very tight pension.
Any small amount that you could donate would be greatly appreciated, if we could make this happen for Kai, it would improve his quality of life more than you can imagine.
Thank you for taking the time to hear our story and thank you for helping us reach this goal.
