Hi everyone, I am posting this publicly because I desperately need urgent help. I hope this works. Right now I am writing this from my hospital bed in the Short Stay Ward in room 19. I have been sick for 12 days, on Monday I was taken on by the medical team at North Shore Hospital with unknown condition, I have had terrible migraine symptoms and awful fever and I am in a lot of pain and discomfort. (Let me just quickly say here don't panic I am being well looked after, but I won't be leaving hospital anytime soon)

The only comfort I have really is listening to music on my phone (streaming) and unsurprisingly I used nearly a Gigabyte of mobile data today alone. It costs 20 bucks for each extra gig. I can't afford it I am back at university doing a BSc (CompSci) and money is very tight, but I am in serious pain and i have photophobia so it is very hard to read or do anything else.

Please share this, I need help, if anyone works for 2degrees who can offer me a cheap bulk deal on prepay mobile data, for while I am in hospital, then please get in touch.

Before anyone says "why don't you get music from home etc" nobody in my family is tech savvy enough to do that, and I didn't know I was going to have to go to hospital and I am very ill so I couldn't plan ahead.

Again, don't worry about me I am in good hands here at hospital but I have this problem and normally I wouldn't ask for help but, like, I am in hospital and crowd sourcing a solution seems intelligent to the mind of someone in a feverish hospital bed at 10.30pm

Hope someone can help. Seriously don't worry about my condition I just need to be able to listen to music because it really helps relax my poor burning head.
