Last fall, I asked for help for Rosita, a girl in the school where I volunteered in El Salvador who was in danger of going blind due to degenerative myopia. We actually exceeded our fundraising goal. But that was okay because Rosita has a sister who also has degenerative myopia. The additional funds that people pledged were used to help buy her sister the glasses needed as a first step in treating this condition. Meanwhile, Rosita continues to do well. She is still wearing her glasses. Other treatments, including surgery, are in her future, but her condition is stable now. Thank you again for everyone who lent support.

This is wonderful! About time we celebrate the way humans can still come together for a good cause 🙂 So happy xx ((You deserve an Oreo – original flavor!))
Aw. Thank you, Christy. 😊
Great news. 🙂
Absolutely! Thanks Judy
That’s fantastic for both sisters!
Most definitely. Cheers
Is it mostly one eye? Could she use info on visual training?
I’m not sure. It was a program I worked in last year in El Salvador and now I’m back in the US.
Oh, I must not have looked at the date. No problem.
This is good news! I appreciate your volunteer work. Probably I wasn’t around blogging when you were doing the fundraising. She looks good!
Thank you. I enjoyed the work that I did there and then following up by helping these sisters. Cheers
I always have a heart to volunteer works like that. When I was working, I couldn’t go. Now that I’m retired, I still can go because I still have carry the side effect from my melanoma cancer. So the only thing I have been doing is to contribute the financial support!
Any way that you can help is great! Cheers
Thank you!
This is really great news! ☺so happy for both of them.
Definitely. Thanks Garfield
