Medical relief for Tania

Hi I'm Stephanie, One of Tania's 4 big sisters.

At the age of 17 Tania was diagnosised with Lupus. After a fun afternoon mum, dad, Tania, Joanne, and me were having a discussion which ended with us in fits of laughter, that laughter where you laugh and cry and just can't stop......then Tania started having trouble breathing. She had been unwell with Pleurisy and was then officially diagnosised with Lupus.

Tania has been in and out of remisssion of her Lupus for the past 22 years and then had other medical conditions on top.

Tania has had to undergo so many medical appointment, treatments and even surgeries as she copes with her Lupus and endometriosis daily.

Tania and her Fiance Keath have two wonderful children Jasmine 10 and Tristan 7. 

The past several months Tania has recently had a rapid decline in her health. This is leaving Tania with severe pain.. it hurts just to brush her hair, numbness half way down her face and her hearing is so sensitive she cannot even listen to the radio in the car. Doctors don't know why.

Tania is having to take time off work to attend her endless appointment, blood tests, and radiology appointments. Doctors are still at a loss with an actual diagnosis as to what is causing her so many new symptoms, doctors have decided to go back to the beginning of where all her symptoms started, now going back over 22 years of testing hospital admission and appointments to try and establish what the cause of her of pain is....

Her amazing partner Keath has been amazing. His loving support and being there for Tania through every stage and watching her deteriorate is hard for any partner to watch. He does everything for Tania and the kids, looking after the function of the house and working a fulltime job, just so Tania can rest and deal with her pain.

NDIS still don't recognise Lupus or Tania's requirements and it means getting assistance in the home to releave some of the pressures for Tania are not available, and the option for her to take time off work is not an option with the cost of living expenses and her ongoing medical costs.

Tania has such a big heart She still attends work fulltime and still trys to looks after her family as much as she can through her pain and currently is even helping to raise funds for childrens cancers while trying to fight her own battles.

So I have set this GO Fund me page up for my sister Tania and her family to try and ease some of the financial burden medical cost bring with it of seeing her numerous doctors and the cost of ongoing medications. So maybe they are able to have more time together as a family and relieve any stress.

So please if you can support Tania. I know she will greatly appreciate it. Tania has not asked for this help, this is what I can do for her from a far, if I can't be by your side. I love you sis xx
