Julie Dixons health journey

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Indi, daughter of Julie Dixon and Ive come to seek help as a last resort for my beautiful mothers health and wellbeing.

Mum has suffered with periodontitis since 2015 now becoming serve since 2019.
For those who aren't aware it is a serious and irreversible gum disease that causes bone loss and multiple other health implications. It has rapidly progressed in the past year so much so that we've been advised her only option to stop the infection, pain and health implications is to have all her teeth removed and replaced with implants.
We've known this news for 6+ months and have exhausted every option for the 55 thousand dollars it will cost.

As a mother does, she has pushed on and on preaching she will be ok to try and work for another year or so to gather the funds but the reality is she wont be able to. Sadly she's lost 10+ kgs from not being able to eat properly, suffered multiple gut health issues and doesn't live a day without pain medication.
This has become urgent and unfortunately we have no financial support.

For those of you who know my mum you will be able to vouch for her overwhelming drive and passion to help others.
She has supported our community for 2 decades now through her yoga school in Murwillumbah. If ANYONE needed attention no matter who you were or if you had money or not my mother would devote every cell in her body to helping you through her practice.
Sadly, mid this year, she was unfairly evicted from her studio in town after 10years of being in that space.
Again after exhausting all options with the little income she has she had no choice but to downsize her already tiny business and teach classes of 3-6 in our living room.

This is the reality of my Mothers income. But that doesn't affect her. Helping others through yoga is her passion and her place on this earth and earning money has never been apart of it. But of course, no bank, no dentist and no finance company will lend her the money she needs to help herself.

On the other hand we have no family. Unfortunately mums whole family was taken from her before she was 20 years old. We have no external support. No one to lean on and no way of saving or earning this amount of money.
If myself or either of my brothers had a way of paying for this we absolutely would but unfortunately thats not our situation. In October last year i moved home, this ended up a blessing in disguise as it was only shortly after that she had to downsize her business and move it home losing half her income. I am now paying majority of the mortgage which has given mum the small amount of freedom to go to all her dental appointments to try and prolong the inevitable.

My mother like many mothers, has single handedly supported myself and my brothers and many other people ALWAYS cutting herself short.
Now is a time where she matters most and we nor any company or institution can give her what she needs.

If she doesn't get this procedure ASAP to stop the infection her health will fail, she will loose her ability to help others through her work and we will sadly loose our home.
We are two women who have spent our lives unable to ask for help but if there were ever a time it is now.

We will be eternally grateful for ANYTHING we receive.
