I am a sixty-year-old male, facing a critical need for assistance with obtaining a new oxygen machine. Currently, my heart is functioning at a mere 34%, and I rely on an oxygen machine for approximately four hours during the day and up to eight hours at night. The machine I currently use has exceeded its expected lifespan of seven years, and regrettably, I am without the means to procure a replacement.
The friends who generously support me financially with rent and food are already stretched to their budgetary limits, and I find myself unable to burden them further. I possess substantial medical documentation that comprehensively illustrates the severity of my heart conditions. Without the aid of the oxygen machine, unrestricted breathing is an impossibility for me.
My only source of income is the SASSA disability grant, and I lack any familial support, financial policies, or investments.
My situation is undeniably precarious. The list of chronic conditions I contend with includes Heart Failure,
Unstable Angina, Trans Ischemic Attacks, Enlarged Heart, Injection Fraction of 34%, indicating a mere 34% heart function, Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3, Depression, Anxiety, and Type 2 Diabetes managed with medication and insulin, among other minor medical concerns.
In an effort to maintain brevity in this description, I assure you that ample medical records, accessible from the Helderberg Hospital under patient number HHH 25155 805, corroborate and elucidate all my medical diagnoses and prescribed medications received from the Government Hospital.
May God bless you abundantly. Thank you.

Oxygen machine desperate need Campaign
Hi everyone,
I'm a sixty-year-old male in urgent need of a new oxygen machine due to my heart functioning at only 34%.
The current machine, exceeding its expected lifespan, is beyond my financial reach. Despite friends helping with rent and food, their support is stretched. I solely rely on a SASSA disability grant with no familial or financial backing. My medical conditions, including Heart Failure and Diabetes, require constant oxygen support. I possess extensive medical records available at Helderberg Hospital (patient number HHH 25155 805) confirming my diagnoses.
Any assistance is deeply appreciated.
Thank you, and may God bless you abundantly.
