Hey! My name is Kelly I'm 26 and while I have a smile on my dial in the picture, the truth is I'm looking at having my left eyeball removed as a result of a domestic dispute. Unfortunately I was hit directly in my left eye with a wooden chopping board and damaged the eye so serveley that the vision is unable to be restored. The past two months have been hell ...a perforated globe, missing lense, lost about 95%of my iris, a completely detached retina and the chance of losing the vision in my right eye through sympathetic ophthalmitis....its painful to say the least but what's more painful is not being able to run around with my 3 year old extremely active little fella of whom I am sole carer for (I can't do activities which raise my heart rate).
I've had 3 surgeries so far, two from a surgeon who worked with the great Fred Hollows but unfortunately my eye has been to badly damaged and it seems the cornea will eventually cloud over and I will need to have the eye removed. The the two surgeries I have had from this private surgeon cost a little over 8,000, and I had to pay the costs upfront to have any chance of saving my eye. Of course my mouth dropped at the price as I of course don't have that sort of money but I was lucky enough to have a good friend loan me the money who I'd very much like to pay back!!
Please help me raise the funds so I can pay my friend back for my eye surgery :-) Thank you all in advance!
