Donna. Me, myself and I :
I’m fighting a rare disease advanced Dercums disease here in Australia which could be genetic as well but mine isn’t. I don’t believe there’s no Specialist in Australia to treat me. I’ve been just left at home. I’m now failing lymphatic system vascular system plus I have complex regional Pain syndrome exacerbated by Cortizone. Everybody be careful of Cortizone injections. I had a injection in the shoulder and the back for my osteoarthritis and two years ago gained 32 kg and had a really bad result from steroid changed. All my fat all my fluid in my body. It started with Breast Cancer at 2018 I can’t see a doctor Ndis they’re giving me a hard time Medical

I would be happy for my tax money to go towards saving people and funding this, rather than sending millions overseas to aid wars

No probs, let’s send money overseas! Don’t worry about our own. And on top of it, takes a civilian to start a charity to help all.

The state government only contributed 600k, meanwhile they waste millions on vanity projects and advertising, once again the government is dropping the ball.
