Hi folks, I'm fundraising for for my daughter's complicated endometriosis surgery in Bucharest. This is my cry for help as a parent, as we cannot afford the procedure abroad, and the waiting list in ireland is so long it could result in her losing internal organs. Paige has suffered crippling pain from this condition for 9 years now, and she's only 21 years old. This condition goes misdiagnosed in women of all ages, and is mostly ignored in young women and teenagers. Endometriosis is not taken as serious by medical professionals as cancer, but in the later stages can be equally complicated, and the surgery can be more complicated.
"This disease is, by far, the most difficult surgical treatment we see in benign gynaecology. This is often worse disease and more difficult surgery than gynaecological cancer. It takes tremendous time and experience to be able to recognise all forms of disease and not freak out when confronted with stage 4 endo with frozen pelvis, obliterated culdesac and deep infiltrated endometriosis". (Dr. Jeff Arrington)
I would hugely appreciate any help to give Paige a better quality of life! Thank you.
