Story
My cousin, looks after my nearly 90 year old aunt who suffers from Alzheimers and diabetes. We noted that she had some medical and visual problems when we visited for the first time in 20yrs last year. After saving enough money to see a doctor, she was diagnosed with a non-malignant brain tumour, which left untreated, will result in blindness and other medical problems. She has already lost some of her peripheral vision.
Please, would you help us raise the funds for this sight saving operation? She has used the little savings she had when she finished working to look after her mom, money from relatives in the USA and England and borrowed money to enable her to go to Cuba for the operation, which is $3-4000 cheaper than in Jamaica, with the added benefit of better outcomes. However, borrowing in Jamaica is not without risks. We are so blessed to have a NHS.
Her brother and niece will be helping to look after my aunt who suffers from various frailties of the aged and can't be left alone, which means that income will be even more limited than normal.
If you can, please make a donation to help ease the burden and prevent my cousin from going blind or worrying about debts incurred due to her illness.

6 years agoMy cousin is making steady progress following her op. Due to complications during her operation she has to return to Cuba for her post op. She sends her thanks and blessings to the meetings/churches and those of you who have donated money to help her so far (£1500) and keeps you all in her prayers. She is trying to borrow more money to pay for this extra expense. If you can help please do. Thanks all of you for your support either with prayers, monetary or good wishes. God bless you all.

6 years agoThanks to Macclesfield for their generous cheques and also to 'The Bethel' for your wonderful donation. I'd like to also thank the anonymous donator. The fund has reached over £1000s now. My cousin is slowly recovering and has quite a few restrictions on what she can do but is coping alright. I will be sending some of the money we have collected so far to help with repayments etc. Any donations will be gladly received either on the Crowd funding site or cheque. God bless and take care.xxx
