A Fight for Sight

Donation protected
In 2022, I was diagnosed with severe non proliferative diabetic retinopathy, which has been causing significant vision problems. I have been undergoing bi-monthly eye injections and laser treatments to manage the condition.

Unfortunately, my insurance no longer covers the cost of these treatments, and I am unable to afford them out of pocket. Without regular injections, there is a high risk of irreversible vision loss and potential blindness.

I am currently fundraising to cover the expenses while I appeal to my insurance company and explore alternative treatment options and am reaching out to you for support during this challenging time.

Any assistance, whether financial or through sharing this email with others, would be greatly appreciated.

Your help can make a significant difference in preserving my vision and overall quality of life.

I am grateful for your support and kindness.  You have been with me from the beginning of this journey, uplifting me through stomach paralysis, renal failure, dialysis, a dual organ transplant, cancer, and now retinopathy. Despite all this medical trauma – I am still optimistic that this is part of my purpose and everything is going to workout according to God’s plan for me.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for considering ways in which you can help.

Warmest regards
