Desperate plea to get weightloss surgery

Remuera, Auckland

Hi everyone,

I am severy overweight with multiple co-mobilities affecting my health and movement. I have been referred to the public system multiple times and keep getting declined.

It's time for change, many people will say just eat less and do more. That is infact correct. I have 2 very small children I can hardly play with. I am a coward.

Getting it done in turkey will cut the cost more then half then done in New Zealand if done privately, please help me change my own life.

Use of funds

All funds raised will go towards surgery cost , flight cost and accommodation cost.
