Hi, my stepmom's name is Teresa and we are in need of your kindness and generosity. A few months ago, she was diagnosed with severe glaucoma in her left eye. Glaucoma is an eye disease where a vital connection between the eye and the brain is damaged due to high fluid pressure, which results in blindness. We went to multiple eye doctors and finally found Dr. Guan at Prestera Eye Medical Group, where she felt taken care of. However, we came to a difficult conclusion that her left eye is permanently blind. Although this has been hard to face as a family, Dr. Guan found early-stage glaucoma in her right eye as well and requires surgery, which is not covered by health insurance. This surgery will help her right eye function normally without the worries of complete blindness. If you have met my stepmom, you know she has worked hard every day of her life to support our family and is a proud breast cancer survivor. I ask from the bottom of my heart for a donation; every dollar counts. Thank you.
