hi! i’m erin:) i am raising £4,500 to help fund my endometriosis surgery and finally have a chance at getting my life back. living with endometriosis is something i wouldn’t wish on anyone. the chronic pain is debilitating, exhausting and, at times, completely unbearable. every day is a struggle, and even the simplest tasks that many people take for granted can feel impossible.

endometriosis affects every aspect of my life, physically and mentally. the constant pain leaves me feeling drained, overwhelmed and unable to live the life i deserve. unfortunately, my symptoms have become so severe that i am unable to work, leaving me struggling not only with my health but also with the financial pressure that comes with being unable to earn an income.

i have been told that the nhs waiting list for a gynaecology appointment is around a year, and the thought of having to endure another year of this pain while waiting for help is heartbreaking. i cannot keep living like this, hoping each day will somehow be easier than the last. my appointment is the 27th november 2027.

i am fundraising to help cover the cost of surgery and give myself the opportunity to receive treatment sooner. any donation, no matter how small, would mean the world to me and bring me one step closer to relief, recovery and getting my life back. this money will cover my surgery, aftercare, treatment and travel to and from manchester.
