My name is Frank. I am 82 years old, single, and I live alone. I have been a professional barber for over 60 years, a trade that I take great pride in and that has been my primary source of income throughout my life.

Barbering requires good vision, attention to detail, and steady hands. Unfortunately, I currently have a medical condition involving cataracts that significantly affects my eyesight. My doctor has advised that cataract surgery is medically necessary in order for me to safely and effectively continue working.

Continuing my work as a barber is very important to me, both financially and personally. It allows me to remain independent, active, and engaged in my community. Receiving this surgery would greatly improve my quality of life and enable me to keep working in the profession I have dedicated my life to.

Thank you for taking the time to consider my situation.

Sincerely,

Frank
