Help Ellie Dyson Live Her Life: A Call to Support Her Gastric Pacemaker Appeal

Imagine having to live with a condition that seldom gets noticed, yet day-in, day-out it holds you back from life? For Ellie, that is exactly her reality.

Ellie has been living with Gastroparesis, a chronic, life-limiting illness that slows down or halts the normal movement of the stomach muscles. 

It means she is sick, in pain, incredibly weak, and dependent on tube-feeding through her abdomen. She has battled this for over 10 years, and throughout it all she has stayed strong — but she needs help now.

Why this matters

While the condition might sound obscure, the impact is very real:

Ellie's children have grown up with hospital visits and medical uncertainty. 

Despite medical care, the tube-feeding is not a complete solution. It keeps her alive, but it doesn’t restore the life she wants to live — full of possibility, not just survival. 

The next step, and a major one, is a gastric pacemaker: a device that can help regulate her stomach’s nerves and muscles and give her the chance to reduce hospitalisations, lessen pain and weakness, and reclaim more of her life.

The goal

Ellie has launched a campaign on GoFundMe: “Gastric pacemaker to help me live my life”. 

Her aim is to raise the funds needed for this surgery and associated treatment so that she can live with more freedom, less fear, and greater hope.

How you can help

Here’s how you can show solidarity and make a real difference:

Donate — Even a small contribution helps. Every amount brings Ellie closer to her goal and towards improved quality of life.

Share — Please share the campaign link with your friends, family, colleagues, and on your social feed. Awareness is crucial.

Show support: Leave a message of encouragement on her GoFundMe page. Knowing people care makes a meaningful difference on this journey.

Final thoughts

Ellie has shown incredible resilience. Now she’s asking for a helping hand so she can move from simply coping, to living. If you’ve ever been grateful for your health, your ability to eat without complication, or simply being able to take a day for granted — consider how transformative this surgery could be for her.

Let’s help Ellie take a step forward — not just for treatment, but for life.

Help Ellie Dyson Get the Life-Changing Operation She Desperately Needs for Gastroparesis

Imagine living each day with constant nausea, pain, and the inability to enjoy a simple meal. 

For Ellie Dyson, a young mother from the UK, this is her daily reality. 

Ellie suffers from a chronic and debilitating condition called Gastroparesis – a disorder that severely affects the normal movement of the muscles in the stomach, preventing it from emptying properly.

Living with Gastroparesis

Gastroparesis is more than just a digestive disorder. It can have devastating effects on daily life, leading to severe malnutrition, fatigue, and hospital admissions. It can also be fatal, in some cases.

For Ellie, it means being fed through a tube, suffering frequent flare-ups, and enduring constant pain and exhaustion. Despite trying every treatment option available on the NHS, her condition continues to deteriorate.

But there is hope.

A Life-Changing Operation – But Not on the NHS

There is an operation available that could transform Ellie’s life – one that offers her a real chance at relief and recovery. However, this specialist surgery is not currently available on the NHS, meaning Ellie must raise the funds herself to access it privately.

The cost of the surgery, travel, and aftercare is significant, and well beyond what Ellie and her family can afford on their own.

Ellie’s Appeal: A Gofundme Campaign

Determined not to give up, Ellie has launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise the money she needs for the operation. Her courage and openness in sharing her journey have already touched many people’s hearts.

But she needs more help.

This is where we, as a community, can make a real difference. Whether you’re able to donate a little or a lot, every Pound helps bring Ellie closer to the life she deserves – one free from daily pain and limitations.

British Woman Launches Fundraiser for Life-Changing Treatment

Eleanor (Ellie) Dyson, a woman suffering from Gastroparesis, has turned to crowdfunding to raise £20,000 for a life-changing gastric pacemaker not available through the NHS. 

Gastroparesis, a chronic illness causing severe nausea and vomiting, has left Eleanor reliant on tube feeding and frequent hospitalisations.

Frustrated by the lack of effective treatment options within the NHS, Eleanor initiated a GoFundMe campaign, which has so far garnered £12,008. "This pacemaker could drastically improve my quality of life," she shared.

Despite facing significant health challenges for over a decade, Eleanor remains hopeful and determined to reach her fundraising goal. Supporters old and new can contribute to her campaign here.
