ORIGINAL REQUEST:
Good Day Jacaranda fm
My name is Rita Perumal and I humbly ask for your help. I have a friend who is in desperate need for a Portable Oxygen Machine with Battery.
Her name is Vigie Naidoo and is 42yrs old and has been diagnosed with Pulmonary Hypertension or PH...this is a rare and incurable disease. People affected with this disease suffer from continuous high blood pressure in the lungs which results in an enlargement of the heart, and can lead to heart failure. Due to the lack of oxygen she needs to be on home oxygen 24/7. There is no cure for this disease but there is a medication to improve the quality of life. Medication for treatment of this disease is very expensive. Her heart and lungs are bad and she needs a bilateral lung and heart transplant.
This is her words to me and that is why I plead to you if you can please help her.
“My life hasn’t been the same, there’s not much I can really do without getting exhausted and blacking out. I am home all the time because I don’t have a portable oxygen machine. My desire is to do a little with my family and make a few more memories. To do this I need a Portable Oxygen Machine with battery life. My prayer is that an Angel blesses me with this gift for Christmas”.
Please Please help!
