Gavin Vermaak is an unemployed 52-year-old who is a loving husband and father to 2 twin girls. Gavin was diagnosed with a severe case of Rheumatoid Arthritis over 3 years ago, and has since gotten worse. He also recently suffered from a Mild Heart attack which has affected his condition & pain even further.

Vicky, who is Gavin's wife is the only income provider for her household and is struggling to provide for her family as well as cover the medical expenses required to care for Gavin.

We are looking for funding to help Vicky pay for and cover the medical expenses needed to help Gavin. Unfortunately, Gavin is not on any form of Medical aid cover and cannot wait any longer to get the treatment that is needed.

His case of Rheumatoid Arthritis is one of the worst cases and it is worsening by the day. His pain is unbearable and this prevents him from being able to move most days. This is a major load to deal with for any person and to struggle financially to cover medical expenses on top of this is even more difficult.

The funding will be used to help Gavin continue his #fight and hopefully get back to the amazing man that he used to be.

Ideally, we would like to raise the funds before the end of the month. The sooner the funds can be raised the better.

We would ideally like to use the funds as follows:

Medication, Private Hospital Care - Government hospital is not able to provide care that is needed for him, Necessary Scans & Tests.

R5000.00 for medication for a repeat of 6 months R5000.00 - R15000.00 for Colonoscopy and Gastroscopy (Private Hospital) Rest of the funds will go towards specific scans, tests, blood work and supplements for weight loss (loss of 35KG in 1 Year)

Any donations would be highly appreciated and would make a huge impact on the family's life. It will help reduce the stress that the family is already going through to care for Gavin, and most importantly will help to get him the correct care & treatment needed for him.

The Funds will go to Vicky that she can use to help cover the Medical expenses needed to care for Gavin.
