Erika De Bruin Parkinson journey

Hi all this is our mom  Erika she has been diagnosed with Parkinson's the deseas has affected her life alot with out medication she cant move or walk and is in constant pain all the time. She has had a few operations already to try and help her have a better life, and due to unforeseen reasons she dont have medical aid any more. We have taken her to government hospital but they cant help with the correct medication, so she has to pay for everything her self and it adds up to +- R5000.00 a month

My dad has started baking cookies and rusks ans bread to try and make all the money for the medication because they only received sassa from the government that they have to live on.

My dad cant go and work becouse she cant be left alone needs help 24hours a day. The 3 off us her daughter's try and help as far as we can but unfortunately we are also in a place where what we can do is not enough.

All we are asking for is help so our mom Erika can have some mobility and be pain free.
