Second opinion needed: chronic sinus disease, Pietermaritzburg
A pediatric cardiologist willing to review Brett's reports could help the family decide on treatment for chronic sinus disease.

Brett was diagnosed with chronic sinus disease in February. The local team has recommended immediate surgery. We understand it's an important decision, and we'd like to be sure.
We're asking if a pediatric cardiologist - anywhere in the world - would be willing to review Brett's reports and give a short opinion (a call of 20 minutes or a written summary). We'd gladly pay for any cost to your practice that we can afford.
We have scans, lab reports and the doctor's notes ready to share securely. We understand that you can't give formal medical advice without an examination, and we're simply looking for guidance on questions to ask and options to explore.
Thanks for even thinking about it.
Thank you so much.

thinking of you and your family. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Dwarka
Hope the doctors have good news. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
Keep going, Nokuthula. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Sent it to 19 people at work. God bless.

Take care. Get well soon. My neighbor in Kikuyu donated after I showed her your page.
thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Rooting for you. Wishing Brett a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Hang in there, Nokuthula. Gave what I could, wish it was more
