A woman has set up a GoFundMe<\/a> page in support of her son, who was hospitalised after he started suffering with severe back pain on Christmas Day.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dawn Anderson started the fundraiser ‘Jordan\u2019s wheelchair to make life easier’ just three weeks ago and has already smashed its target, raising over \u00a35,000.<\/p>\n

The “proper Yorkshire man” has been in hospital since January 1 with a burst abscess which left him paralysed from the waist down.<\/p>\n

Family, friends and strangers have donated to help provide 24-year-old Jordan with a comfortable wheelchair and Ms Anderson said the page was made after she realised she wouldn’t be able to afford more than a basic chair for her son.<\/p>\n

Jordan, Emily and Elsie<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

She said: “I wanted Jordan to have more than a basic wheelchair, that’s why I set up the page. Something which would make life a little easier, as we have had the conversation that he won’t be able to walk again.”<\/p>\n

Jordan who only got married last year was in hospital when his wife, Emily, 23, gave birth to their daughter, Elsie.<\/p>\n

Ms Anderson said: “Jordan wasn’t happy when he first heard I had set up GoFundMe page. Jordan doesn’t think he deserves help from other people, but he\u2019s the first to go and help anyone else.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve been totally blown away that people that don\u2019t know him are reaching out to help. It took off really fast after only a couple of hours we’d raised over \u00a31,000.”<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"

Jordan and Emily only married last year<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

Jordan has only managed to spend five days with his nine-week-old daughter so far and is unable to hold her currently due to his spasms.<\/span><\/p>\n

It could be another 8 to ten weeks before Jordan is discharged from the spinal unit at the Northern General but he is determined to leave hospital sooner so he can enjoy time with his daughter.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jordan’s family want to give him the most mobile and lightweight chair to help the young family who will also have to deal with a pushchair. Raising enough money will also improve the 24-year-old’s quality of life when he is discharged home to his family.<\/span><\/p>\n
