To raise funds to get Breast reduction surgery for medical and family reasons

Northland

My name is Sarah I am 24years old and I have a 3 year old little girl called Ava.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my give a little page.

Ever since high school and through to becoming a parent, I have always had issues in regards to my large chest. I cant do simple tasks like unloading the dishwasher, making the bed and cooking dinner.

My daughter Ava misses out on simple playtime fun with me because of my inability to join in, and I’ve spent many days feeling like I’m a bad parent.

I have been losing weight slowly but surely and am trying my best to get in the best shape for surgery.

During the Covid-19 lockdown I was diagnosed with Sciatica and am now constantly on nerve blockers and pain relief, this has made me take a huge step back and stopped me being able to do anything! The Whangarei Hospital have said they will be able to get my damaged disk removed but are unable to fund my breast reduction surgery which is the leading cause to all of my back problems that I suffer with.

Unfortunately I am unable to fund the full amount needed for surgery and after care. I will be trying to save as much as I can myself over the year but the outstanding figure of $23,000 is too much for me on my low income. Any help would be more than amazing! By January 2021 I want to have a date booked for surgery.

All funds from Every donation will be put towards getting this surgery even if we dont make up the full amount we will continue until I can get the surgery.
