Hi my name is Cora here is a little bit about what happened to me back in November 2023 I got a pain in my back I contacted the GP and was given pain relief. It then got worse and same pain relief given again . took long time to get go appointment to be seen they then told me it was sciatica.it then worsen to the point where I lost all power in my legs and lost all feeling from waist down , I was sent to hospital after hospital and sent home as I wasn't serious enough they said.this all happened in 2024 of this year almost 10months after this pain started.after a long period of going to GPS and hospitals I was then seen in Galway and after 5 days in there I was given an MRI from there it all happened so quick I had a tumor on my spine I was then rushed to Beaumont hospital where I had surgery to remove the tumor but now I have a long road to recovery I now have to learn how to walk again and have intensive physio and rehabilitation .I just hope to regain the feeling back in my legs and to walk again unaided. I just want to let people know never take anything for granted!!
These genris donations will help me to make my bathroom into a wet room so I can use my bathroom again also to make my bedroom into a wheelchair friendly bedroom. I'll have to get ramps at my doors So I can get in and out of the house
