Help to get a wheelchair to increase my independence, thanks

Hi, My name is Jennifer I am fund raising to get an electric wheelchair to allow me to have some quality of life and a tiny bit of independence and allow me to get out of the house.

For those of you that don't know I will tell you the short version of my story...

In 2016 I was working as a Paramedic, I was taking a patient into A&E I remember feeling a bit funny, the next thing I know I wake up in the resus bay in A&E! And well my journey has just gone downhill from there unfortunately.

Basically my symptoms were I was feeling dizzy when standing and I was collapsing 12times a day and really struggling to function. I couldn't work on the road as a paramedic, I had to change jobs to working in an office.

I was eventually diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) after lots of tests and a long time.

Initially my condition responded to 'standard' treatments however, these would work for a few months and then stop working and I would be back in the same position. I exhausted all the standard treatments.

Ultimately this lead to me starting clinical trial treatment which worked great for about 2yrs. It allowed me to make a move towards a career change, I went back to univeristy to study Geology (yes a massive change!)

Things were going 'great' until about a month ago....

I now get symptoms when I am sat down which I never did before, I struggle to stand and walk more than a few steps. I feel dizzy and lightheaded constantly, and I can collapse upto 18 times a day.

Unfortunately, there is no further treatment and my consultant has said the only options available to me to try and get some quality of life is to get a wheelchair and a cardiac alert dog to help warn me when I am going to collapse as I have no idea as my symptoms are the same continually.

I really want to finish my degree and be able to do some form of work which, whilst at this moment seems insurmountable, I am determined. In order to do this I need to be able to get around and a wheelchair would really help with this. I am needing help to fund this as I am not currently working due to my univeristy studies and I just cant afford one. I really need an electric wheelchair so that I am able to move myself as I couldnt do this physically with a manual one.

I really hope you can help even by donating a really small amount, every little helps as they say!!

Thank you in adavance!!
