Sometimes even Wonder Women needs help ❤️

Hi guys, this is my mum Annie. Those who know her, know she is the most selfless, hard working, kind and generous woman you could meet always putting everyone before herself. In early March Mum had an incident which resulted in a herniated disc pushing on her sciatica. She is super tough but this has left mum in a tremendous amount of pain and unable to do daily tasks like getting dressed, let alone the things she loves. She has been unable to reopen her buisness after covid due to her pain and inability to sit or stand for too long. Some days she is bed ridden. She has visited the hospital in agony multiple times to be either ignored or told “well this isn’t going to get you bumped up the waiting list”, or just sent home with a higher amount of pain medication which just makes her sleepy and doesn’t really relieve the pain. She spends every day in constant agony and her quality of life has been reduced to something I never thought I’d see the vibrant, determined, do anything person we know her to be. But... she visited the surgeon today and was told that surgery is the only solution to get her quality of life back. That surgery is approx $20,000!! My mum is self employed and doesn't have that money in savings. That is why her family are pleading for your help. If we can raise the money then mum can get her surgery in a matter of maybe 2 weeks instead of a lengthy wait on the public list.. I know it’s such a difficult time for so many but if you would like to contribute to help my mum, anything you could spare would be so greatly appreciated.
