Please help for emergency spinal surgery

Donation protected
Hi. My name is Tom and I am trying to raise money so I can get a much needed spinal operation. I tattoo for a living and I have not been able to visit my
Family or my own son in Australia for over two years now or even get to meet my first ever nephew and even without the pandemic I would
Not be able to handle the flight as I lose the use of my legs daily.the recovery time is going to be anywhere between 3 to 5 months and I have no access to public funds on my visa. I have what is called Cauda Equina Syndrome.
If patients with cauda equina syndrome do not seek immediate treatment to relieve the pressure, it can result in permanent paralysis, impaired bladder and/or bowel control, loss of sexual sensation, and other problems. Even with immediate treatment, some patients may not recover complete function. The best outcomes for cauda equina syndrome occur with earlier treatment. • Bladder and/or bowel dysfunction, causing you to retain urine or be unable to hold it.
* Severe or progressive problems in the lower extremities, including loss of or altered sensation between the legs, over the buttocks, the inner thighs and back of the legs (saddle area), and feet/heels.
I have already been in and out of hospital and at it’s worst I was paralysed from the glutes right down to my calf muscles.

i want to get it done asap as I am a father and I moved over here to be with my son and I don’t want to end up back in a wheelchair and having to move back to Australia away from him. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am already doing everything I can to sell what I don’t need and working as much as I can when I am able and not in too much pain. But this needs to be fixed sooner rather than later.

please help 

Also any money that is raised that I don’t need to use I will happily donate to a charity 

The main beneficiary of this finding will be myself but my partner Katarzyna Park will be receiving any donations so when I am hostpital All funds will be used to cover my living costs and all of my work related out goings and simply keeping a roof over my head. I will also won’t be able to drive for quite some time so will need to pay for transport and then buy a vehicle that will be suitable for me to use after my recovery as I have sold most of mine due to trying to raise funds. I will need to buy and automatic due to the disability. 

The money will be coming to me into an account I have set up solely for when I have my surgery so it can drop feed and fund all of my bills and expenses. But also as I said. Anything extra over what I need to use will be donated to a charity. 

Thankyou all again
