Help Shiv gain back her independence with a power chair

Donation protected
Hi!

My name is Jet and I’m helping my friend Shiv set up a go fund me to help raise money for a power chair/mobility chair to get her some independence back, and be able to take her children out, do the school runs and getting out and about on adventure days with her children & basic daily needs like shopping.

Shiv is 25 and has a terminal lung disease called Cystic Fibrosis. Shiv is a mum to three beautiful children, one who also has Cystic Fibrosis and high care needs to for Shiv to be able to feel more independent a chair would be exactly what she needs to do this.

Unfortunately over the last few months Shiv’s health has declined further to the point walking has become significantly more difficult and energy consuming, with achy joints and also having severe debilitating coughing fits which can leave her needing to sit down and can even lead to dizziness and being unable to keep her balance. Shiv also has Cystic fibrosis diabetes meaning she suffers from random hypos which again alongside all the other reasons she struggle with mobility, this just adds another danger to walking around in public.

Shiv is struggling with the psychological affects of not being able to be as mobile as she was and at such a young age with children who depend on her this is such a difficult thing to comes to terms with, something we all take for granted is our mobility and don’t understand until it’s taken from us.

if you could spare even £1 or share this go fund me it would mean the world to Shiv and those who love her.

thank you ❤️
