Join Lyndsay's Path to Health: Pre-Surgery Funding

Donation protected
Support My Journey to Healing and Mobility. A Personal Appeal from the Heart.

Hello, I'm Lyndsay, the person behind the Quirky Burtie Jack Russell Adventures on Facebook that many have come to love across the globe. Today, I'm reaching out not just as Burt's mum but as someone facing a daily battle with chronic psoriatic arthritis and severe osteoarthritis in my knees. The simple joys of life, like picking up Burt, or our adventures, have become daunting tasks due to the pain and limited mobility I endure every day.

The Waiting Game

My consultant has put me on an 18-month waiting list for complex knee surgeries. With my knees being bone on bone, the pain is relentless, and the need for surgery urgent. But I'm not one to sit idly by. Encouraged by you, my wonderful Quirky Burtie community, I've decided to take action and set up this GoFundMe page.

Why I Need Your Help

This fundraiser aims to support two critical aspects of my pre-surgery journey:

Hotel Spa Access: To engage in gentle exercise in a pool and jacuzzi, aiding my mobility in a supportive setting.
Sports Massage Therapy: To relieve pain and improve my mobility, getting my body in the best possible shape for the upcoming surgery.

A Holistic Approach

Inspired by the incredible support and the need for a mental and physical shift, I've embarked on a holistic health journey. I've adopted a sugar-free diet and made lifestyle changes aimed at reducing pain and improving my surgery prognosis. The journey is tough, but with each small step, I feel a bit stronger, a bit more hopeful.

Join My Journey

The adventures I share with Burt have been my solace, and now, more than ever, I need your support. Your donation, no matter how small, means the world to me. It's not just about funding treatments; it's about giving me a fighting chance to return to the life I love, to more adventures with Burt, and to a future where pain doesn't dictate my days.

Let's show the world the strength of our Quirky Burtie community. Support My Pre-Surgery Recovery & Wellness—because together, we can face this challenge and emerge stronger on the other side.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart (and Burt's too).
