Restore Vision and Stability for Patrick's Parents
Donation protected
Hello everyone, my name is Patrick. I want to take the time to explain why I have started this GoFundMe.
My parents, who are the rock and foundation of my life, have hit the roughest part in their lives. They lost their home under unjustified circumstances and have been forced to live in a motel for the last two years, going through all their savings just to keep a roof over their heads. To make things even more complicated, just this past month, my dad has been diagnosed with a cataract in each of his eyes, causing him to lose sight in everything he once enjoyed seeing.
Being a domino effect, he was also let go from his job due to the unexpected cataracts. With no insurance and using every dime they had left to get doctors' opinions, they were turned down for surgery. It would now cost $3,000-$5,000 per eye to have the cataracts removed.
I have exhausted all my funds to help keep them afloat. I have now turned to the help of strangers, hoping that my parents' story gets out there and they can receive the help they need I want nothing more than my dad to be able to see my son growing up. If you're unable to donate, please just share this as far and wide as possible! Any documentation as proof can be sent, from diagnosis to surgery cost! I would never stretch this far if the help wasn't needed. Thank you for taking the time to read, and I'll be happy to fill in any gaps or questions as needed!
