Sickly girl and mother need help

Because of where we live, water is a very big problem, so relieving herself from the outside toilet is very difficult.

I live at Shabalala Trust near Hazyview. I have lived with my mother all my life.

I always relied on my mother because she always takes care of me because I suffer from epilepsy.

Today my life has changed as now we take care of each other. My mother suffers from intestinal lung disease or lung fibrosis.

She is on a life-support machine which she uses to breathe.

She must always be plugged in which has changed both our lives.

Because of where we live, water is a very big problem, so relieving herself from the outside toilet is very difficult and I am young and ready to do any job, but the fact is I have to be with my mom always.

So I tried to build an inside toilet which will be helpful to move with the tubes that help her breathe, but because of my financial instability, I could not complete my wish for my mother.

Please would you assist in any way, or ideas for me to make it happen?
