The above named patient is a married lady with 3 children. Two daughters and one son aged 6 yrs, 2 yrs, and 6 month old respectively. The husband is a carpenter aged 27 yrs and she is a house wife.
In 2008, Vivian started loosing her vision gradually without any trauma or pain. She didn’t have the money to seek for eye check, she remained at home despite loosing her eye sight. She then complained to a friend about her eye sight ailment, who then directed her to Sabatia Eye hospital, having seen the sign post while passing from Kapsabet to Kisumu.
Vivian after a few months of collecting funds for transport, she then made her way to the hospital, where she was examined and diagnosed of Bilateral cataract (Cataract Both eyes).
Since Vivian did not have funds to pay for the surgery, she wanted to travel back home blind to look for money. She didn’t know when she would get the money.
Thanks to OUD Afrika, whereby Vivian was done surgery on this fund and can now see and do her daily activities without any problems.
NB:
Vivian was brought in by her six year old daughter as her caretaker and a baby seater for her six month old son. Talking to Vivian, she said “Elokamano Oud Afrika” (Thanks to Oud Afrika) thanks Sabatia Eye Hospital. Even though I’m not old, one day I will grow old with my eye sight.
On behalf of the many poor patients who have benefited from the OuD Afrika poor patients fund Sponsorship we wish to pass our since thanks to the OuD Afrika who have put in effort to ensure that poor patients and families get treatment for their eye ailment.
