Hi there,

As you know in life we all have that ONE special angel in our lives that, in there time of need we want to do any and everything in our power to support them. My special Aunty Pauline that lives in Zimbabwe does not have any medical funding and is in extreme pain for the last 10 days with her colon.

She was admitted for one night with one drip to help hydrate her and was sent home with no further help or pain relief, They have not even tried to help find out what is causing this tremendous pain, they require funds prior to operating. Its a catch 22 if you dont find fund nothing happens....

I would ask that if you find it in your heart to help us raise enough funds for her to be seen by a doctor that can help diagnose the problem and with your help can get her on the road to recovery.

I and my family thank yo in advance from the depth of our hearts for your support and God bless and keep you.

Update 1 Aug 2019 7pm

Her name is Pauline Els, in West End Clinic, 6 Baines ave, Harare, Zimbabwe. The surgeon is Doctor Muchuweti. The anaesthetist is Doctor Chimoga. Aunty Pauline has now had the operation this afternoon and is now in ICU on all life support machines.It was a perforated bowel and caused sepsis infection causing organ failure. The big concern is clearing the sepsis.We need to pay further fees for her continued medical care, and once again thank you for your kind support 🌺

Update

Hello to All,

My family and I would likee to Thank You for your kindenss shown to a special Lady, some of who knew her and some that did not. Aunty Pauline sadly passed away yesterday, no worda can describe the pain.

We will leave this open for a few more day in the hope we can raise a bit more funding for her to be put to rest as best we can and cover thr medical coat that need to be paid in full.

Heaven has won A precious Angel, no longer with us but will Never be forggotton.

With deep sadness,

Kind Thank You,

Natalie

  • This is for a special family member, who has been hospitalised in Zimbabwe, every procedure done in the hospital has to be paid for in cash, with no means of funding is very taxing, every bit, large or small donated will be highly appreciated.
