Jason's monthly expenses are a lot and we have recently made another application to our medical aid to cover his medication under chronic/PMB but unfortunately despite Jason having so many health issues our medical aid have rejected our application for all medication based on the fact that his conditions do not fall under their list of chronic/PMB conditions. It is very frustrating for us as Jason's medication costs over R3,000.00 per month. His Sandomigran alone for stomach migraines costs R657.00 for a months supply of tablets. I did try and stop the sandomigran for a few days but this had a bad effect on Jason and he was starting to have stomach cramps and started feeling nauseous and gagging. This medication is for his cyclic vomiting syndrome or autonomic condition and both these conditions are not a chronic/PMB condition.
The trust funds are running low - we have a little over R7,000.00 which will cover one months school/therapy fees and a little medication and doctors fees. Again we are facing the stress of worrying over finances because there is no ways Bruce and myself can cope on our own and pay for all the expenses - see Jason's monthly expenses to see a breakdown of what we have to pay for.
I know I am painful with asking for assistance but there are people willing and able to help. If you are one of those people and are able to assist with a fundraiser for Jason, please contact myself via the "contact us" page on the left. I know golf days are pretty successful but I know nothing about golf and wouldn't know how to round up a few golfers for a days golf. A raffle is another option but I don't have any prizes to start a raffle. If you are able to assist with raising funds, please contact me via the "contact us" page.
