Campaign Story
Hi Guys, My Name Christel Coetzee and i'm 30 years of age.
This is a life-changing opportunity for myself and i need your help.
I had Retinoblastoma as a baby there fore my left eye was removed and replaced with a artificial eye. For those who do not know what it is, it is an eye cancer that begins in the retina — the sensitive lining on the inside of your eye.
Unknowingly, i was suppose to go to a ophthalmologist 6-12 months a year and have a new eye done every 5years...... i'v had the same eye for 20+ years without going to any doctors.
Today, i sit with a very bad eye infection and in serious need of a new custom eye.
With just 230 people, each donating a R100.00 will make my dream come true.
i found the most amazing doctor that can do MAGIC to my eye socket that will in-able my artificial eye to move with the eye that can see. Happy Days (Vida Trumpelmann) Dr Danie.
i can't wait for this to be done so that i can finally take the hair out of my face and live the life i've always dreamed of :)
