Cost of surgery
Donation protected
Hi,
My name is Amy Bromley, I am 15 years old. I was born in New Zealand but moved to Perth, Western Australia when I was four years old.
I am fundraising so that I can help meet the cost of my surgery
I have a medical condition called hyperhidrosis , which causes chronic excessive sweating in my hands and feet. My hands can at times become incredibly cold and stiff.
This condition is incredibly embarrassing and has disrupted everyday life for me.
My hands are now becoming painfully sore as they dry out. Opening my hands hurts some days.
I struggle to write on paper, use the mouse and keyboard on the computers at school and this makes assessments very hard to do.
I am also a cheerleader, a netball player and play the flute, saxophone, piano and guitar. This condition has had a dramatic impact on my ability to play.
It can cause self esteem issues and makes life incredibly hard at times.
The only solution unfortunately is surgery. As I have such a severe case no medication or alternative treatment is available to me.
The surgery is called Endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy or ETS for short.
The target amount is the total cost of the surgery. The funds are held by GoFundMe and transferred into my bank account. Which has been verified by this platform.
Proceeds from this fundraising will help cover the cost of my surgery at the Perth Sweat Clinic. Surgery has been booked for May 5th 2023.
