Natalie - Steven Johnson Survivor

My name is Natalia Lucia Jimenez Gomez, I’m 31 years old, I’m from Venezuela but currently living in Charlotte, NC. In 2012, I was diagnosed with Steven Johnson Syndrome and NET, during the course of this disease I have taken 8 surgeries and I stayed 1 month in IUC and 2 months in hospital. I am currently free of danger, but still struggling with the repercussions of this disease.



Regrettably, I need to take a new surgery on my right eye, called "Superficial  Keratectomy" which is superior cornea scraping with Amniotic membrane transplant  in order to reduce intense pain caused by dead cells into my eye and try to improve my vision, which it is currently 20/400.






I wish I could take this surgery as soon as possible to not completely lose my eyesight in my right eye.

The amount of money requested is for paying hospital and medical fees, because I have not health insurance.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and share my story. Any donations will be possible greatly appreciated. I know that life has its own challenges for everybody and I am extremely grateful for any amount of help we can get During This Time.

 Thank you again!

Natalie
